Isn't kind of a similar thing happening to DNA from generation to generation ? Codec artifacts being similar to gene mutations in DNA ?

- jakobegger 11y agoNope. DNA copying is surprisingly reliable, and there are several mechanisms that prevent this kind of degradation. Also, as soon as a serious bad (deleterious) mutation happens, the resulting individual won't be able to reproduce further -- this selection process ultimately prevents this from happening.
