initial conditions, but does nothing, afik, to explore the boundary conditions except to the extent that it runs out of entailments and expands its model no further. What your program didn't include was the impact of each iteration
on the "initial conditions". In a complex universe, context impacts change and
change impacts context. In essence, the context evolves along with the living
systems. The initial conditions change all the way through, so it should never
run out of entailments... It's that huge interactive potential again, where
organizational changes cause a shift in all relations including those between
system and context, and it just keeps going.
This is how the development of plant life on Earth could change the
atmospheric chemistry, which changed climate, which changed plant life, which
continued to change atmospheric chemistry... (a series of developments
humans are actively working to undo...)
