Science Magazine - Learning the language of DNA

So far we have been decoding DNA as if it were a cypher. More generally it is a language we now use AI to learn the language perhaps even the strategy or “philosophy” of DNA.

"Troops in the Continental Army swore to defend the country against 'King George, his heirs and successors, and his and their abettors, assistants, and adherents.'”
In 1789 the oath became allegiance to the Constitution.
