Prof. Jeremy England at MIT and Dr. Karo Michaelian at the National Autonomous University of Mexico tell us that “dissipation-driven adaptation” occurs spontaneously when energy flows through a symbolic logic media over a sustained period of time. The first symbolic logic media on early Earth were amino acid networks in liquid water. Amino acid networks underwent “dissipation-driven adaptation” and evolved into RNA, DNA, and cellular life. Cellular life continues to undergo “dissipation-driven adaptation”.

Computer media is a symbolic logic media. A huge amount of energy is flowing through computer media.

According to theory, life processes, "dissipation-driven adaptation" should be developing in computer media. We can use techniques from biology, metagenomics, to measure it!
