The No Free Lunch Theorem and hypothesis of instinctive animal behavior

Abstract

The problem of knowledge acquisition in animals is considered from the point of view of cybernetics. We show that all typesof animal behavior can be consistently explained on the basis of innate behavior programs and the creation of new behaviorprograms is logically inconsistent. The hypothesis that all animal behavior is completely innate is proposed. As a possiblephysical implementation of the storage of congenital programs, we considered quantum entanglement of biologically importantmolecules. Experiments to test hypotheses are proposed.
