  "gloss": "Baked-in survival ranges become priors, and gaps between prior and state drive action",
  "mechanism": "The ranges an organism must stay in to live act as priors inside {{pem}}. Whenever the current or predicted state departs from those ranges, the mismatch becomes an incentive to act or to learn something new. Motivation is thereby a consequence of uncertainty reduction relative to fixed homeostatic targets.",
