        Or the development of genetic algorithms has completed?

        Isn't it true that selection/mating/mutation/chromosome/hybrid/
genotype/phenotype/gene/... are taken from genetics?

        Don't you think you may be able to discover new algorithms from
studying genetics?

        Do you really believe the complete genome of HIV is just a 4-state
bits encoded string?

        Then please, give youself a chance, take a look at any modern
genetics text book, and be a cross-discipline expert.

        BTW, I would appreciate any reasonable arguments because I'm trying
to learn ai-genetic from the genetics side.
