'Nature is a tinkerer, not an inventor.' F.Jacob. But Forrest says evolution closer to skilled engineer and the distinction between design and evolution not so sharp.
Frances Arnold Nobel prize 2018 for chemistry directed evolution (ie Genetic Algorithm) applied to chemistry, eg DNA-SWCNT https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frances_Arnold
Xenobots Mike Levins group at Tufts University https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1910837117 Two types of Frog cells => 1mm robot
Lenski E-coli MSU Large jump in evolution.
Large jump in flu virus, eg bird and pig virus interacting.
Engineering innovation like recombination of earlier ideas. NB not clean slate design. Chaos engineering, coevolutionary arms races in software security.
A Jacob test: engineering or evolved?
Evolutionary dynamics in software. There is Darwinian processes in today's software. Software has become more biological: stackoverflow. AB testing (run by genetic algorithm in the back ground, interactive evolution). Continuous integration (rapiarinator). Fuzzing. Chaos Engineering (robust to random changes) Cyber security arms races.
neutral mutations, mutational robustness needed for evolution. = Test suite equivalent. bug repair, eg GenProg third of mutations are neutral. Why? Many ways it could arise.
APR with larger step size
\cite{Liou:2019:GI} Smith-Waterman CUDA 12 highly epistatic mutations
Need more attention to existing EC work, drift, search (eg novelty search), more use of epistasis. More real biology. More hardware resources.
video 46:00 Cost of robustness (eg spell checker => poorer typing) Robustness mechanism becomes essential. Eg IT systems. Challanges
