I always wondered if there is a parallel between the "0's and 1's" of electronical devices and the "G, T, C, A" of the genome. While the 0's and 1's allow computers to perform logical and mathematical processes wouldn't DNA open the gate for true artificial intelligence and artificially created emotion?
After I read the article I noticed that they're using the DNA mainly to store data using its small structure but I wonder if there are other ways to use this idea.
For exmaple would it be possible to make a DNA chip grow? This sounds quite overwhelming...
