-  Evolutionary pressure to favor individuals who
can learn
-  an individual can perform a small local search during its
lifetime to maximize its fitness
-  it can support a more diverse gene
pool and therefore more rapid evolutionary adaptation
-  evolving
population of neural networks - genes determined which weights could
change - weights changed during lifetime - over generations more
weights became fixed as the population optimized...what would happen
if the fitness function kept moving??
