Don't you think that with a powerful enough computer, the development of a creature with DNA [a1, a2, a3...] (a finite string btw) could be predicted? We can also figure out how the DNA works by cloning the creature and seeinh what pops out.
Don't you think that with a powerful enough computer, the development of a creature with DNA [a1, a2, a3...] (a finite string btw) could be predicted? I can't prove it, but I believe the answer is no. Certainly with the current state of technology the answer is no.
Since DNA was discovered, it was assumed to be a blueprint -- there were dogmatic statements about the one to one coding of genes and proteins. Now we are in something of a quandry, because there aren't enough genes to make this one to one mapping.
