> emerges from more fundamental processes
What do you make of Assembly Theory’s reinterpretation of time as a physical property, closely linked to the complexity and history of objects?

Feels complementary to quantum emergence rather than contradictory. Maybe quantum correlations create the substrate for temporal experience, while assembly complexity determines how much temporal depth objects carry within that framework.
Both treat time as emergent from physical processes rather than fundamental, just at different scales.
