The Winner Takes It All
How AI is being used to design living things that can outcompete nature - and how that may matter.

For 10,000 years we've tried to tame the living world - to bend it to what we need. And almost every time, nature quietly kept an upper hand, because the things we made couldn't survive without us. In effect, a domesticated or modified organism trades away fitness for usefulness, and that trade-off has quietly kept our creations contained.

Some organisms do escape that trade-off - and one example we'll discuss is a genetically modified bacterium (GMM) you can already buy for $250, engineered to move into your mouth and stay for life.

AI will greatly expand our capacity not just to modify living things, but to design them to outcompete their wild relatives - to win - in the real world\, in the natural environment.
