That&#x27;s  precisely right. I think between this and some of the upcoming work in memcomputing (&amp; self-organzing electronics more broadly), we have a new set of tools which may resemble &#x27;physical oracles&#x27; . IE, these special systems can compute exponentially difficult  problems through thermodynamics or whatever other quantum-ally optimal properties biology has evolved to use. They may not be universal computers at first, but they ultimately may point the way forward towards that vision.
