Bedau suggests that the first generation of artificial cells will be extremely feeble and utterly dependent on human intervention to survive.
This is why I think computer simulation will ultimately be the tool to use in endeavors like this, once computers have enough power to model everything quickly, with enough fidelity. If it takes a while to make feeble life forms, with specific intent - how much longer will it take to create the proper example of a more natural configuration that would demonstrate how hardier life forms might spontaneously emerge?

Why does the movie "The Terminator" come to mind when reading articles like this?
Would it be cool if someone discovered that the first living cells on this planet were invented by hyper-intelligent beings--who were then killed by the bacteria they created?
