You need to remember that nobody really knew what software would use this data. There’s a famous quip from Eric Lander about the genome: it’s like having a dictionary for a language we don’t understand.
- DoreenMichele 5y agoI think it's actually more like blueprints for a factory we don't understand. The code tells the body how to run bio fab works and we don't understand what tools will be printed and how they work and what modifications the code changes will make to the tools, the factory that builds them, etc. It would probably be simpler if it were like a language.
