Here is something to ponder.
This suggests a "natural selection" process in play at a cosmic level
that selects for (results in the survival of) some particular complex
organic molecules which were in turn synthesized naturally from atoms.
It does not really address the matter of a transition from non-life to
sentient life, but it does rather pose a problem for the "everything
runs down" perspectives. This clearly is an instance of a natural
process that moves toward more complexity.
