Complex Systems are not composed of static entities like our tools are. even something like an LLM is fundamentally built on the axioms of computation - implying you can enumerate all possible states of a machine. Complex systems - born from, embodied and embedded in the context of the Natural System inherit its drive and capicity for change. They contain continuously changing unenumerable contexts, have this "strive" for persistence and ultimately are able to derive meaning beyond immediate physical tools, of which any effective "striving process" must be such that it reduces the distance between its meaningful objects that are far away (goals).
