query: What is the importance of energy autonomy and foraging in creating true artificial life?
answer: Researchers aiming to create true artificial life are not only focused on intelligent control but also on the robot's ability to find its own resources through foraging (seeking energy and spare parts). This is linked to autonomous foraging, a field relevant to various scientific disciplines including robotics and artificial life.
