When researchers gave a genetic molecule the ability to replicate, it evolved over time into a complex network of “hosts” and “parasites” that both competed and cooperated to survive.
This is the most interesting thing I’ve ever read! It almost confirms that life spontaneously arises from self replicating RNA molecules and coevolves with parasites to create more complex interactions and more complex mutations. Their next step is for the molecules to evolve a metabolic function, which is life. Incredible read!
