We don&#x27;t really understand the &quot;hardware&quot; enough to create a legit programming language for life yet.<p>We&#x27;re basically reverse engineering biology and that&#x27;s pretty hard.<p>Believe it or not DNA&#x2F;RNA knowledge is just the tip of the iceberg in how life works.<p>There&#x27;s so many other factors that influence DNA expression like DNA folding&#x2F;compaction, enzyme up&#x2F;down regulation, the genes environment, all in a vary complex interacting system that creates life as we know it.<p>If you want to skip the DNA and jump straight to proteins and just start assembling amino acids then you run into an NP hard problem that the most advanced supercomputers and GPU clusters can&#x27;t decipher.<p>So that&#x27;s a brief summary into the challenges that are faced.<p>If we ever do reverse engineer life I think we would become what historic literature classifies as &quot;Gods&quot;.
