Balance, Coherence, and Structural Characteristics of Intelligence

As proposed earlier, the world’s construction is a process of entities seeking external coherence and internal-external balance. In this process, similar structures appear across different scales of entities (aligning with the views in the “From the Mysticism of Wave Theory to the Definitional Dilemma of Things” section of the “Philosophical Foundations of Intelligenism”). As frequently observed in my career, market fluctuations reveal similar structural characteristics across different time windows—20-day, 5-day, 1-day, 4-hour, or 1-hour lines. Even when using non-standard time windows, such as 2-day, 99-minute, or 35-minute lines, market fluctuations exhibit similar patterns. This phenomenon is not limited to market price fluctuations, but also appears in scenarios such as water flow or biological structures. In these similar structures, the golden ratio is often evident, which I speculate is an inevitable result of entities stacking and accumulating from small to large scales to achieve internal and external balance. When entities can be infinitely subdivided and exhibit similar structures, they may only achieve balance through specific proportional stacking or expansion. Otherwise, entities might exhibit distortion or deformation at particular scales, which could be unpredictable and incompatible with external entities, making such deformations unsustainable in the environment. In studying the subdivision, stacking, and expansion characteristics of market fluctuations, these structural features appear not only in fluctuation amplitudes but also in time cycles, which may be the origin of market cycle theory. When studying Chinese dynastic changes, I vaguely sensed similar temporal rhythms, but limited by incomplete historical data and time constraints, I could not conduct detailed research to draw definitive conclusions.

When observing human social organizational structures, ranging from smaller-scale family units to larger-scale national organizations, and intermediate forms such as clans, villages, towns, or cities, similar stacking and accumulative structures, progressing from simple to complex, are evident. While the organizational subdivisions of different nations vary significantly, they all follow a layered, bottom-up pattern. The construction of intelligent program networks seems to, and perhaps should, follow this pattern—from individual simple neurons to relatively simple network structures, which then participate as intelligent agents in more complex network constructions to form higher-order intelligent agents. Through this layered stacking, intelligence leaps and organizational complexity increase. In this process, intelligent agents (serving as neurons in larger networks) continuously seek coherence with the external environment to sustain their existence. Just as humans, constructed from molecules to DNA to cells to organs, embody intelligence, this pursuit of external coherence drives the construction of higher-order intelligent agents with enhanced intelligence and behavioral capabilities.
