Ahem, as a biologist, I think this is totally right. Great post!

You might find many interesting things coming from researchers in the International Society for Artificial Life, which shares your perspective on this. The proceedings of their recent conferences can be found here: https://direct.mit.edu/isal

An interesting branch of their work is the origins of life, both biological and other, and how this could be relevant for finding instances of life off-Earth.
