gollark: You could entirely fix cancer through better DNA error correction, for instance, and the technology for that has been developed as part of communication/storage systems we have now (although admittedly implementing it in biology would probably be very very hard).
gollark: On the other hand, through actually having a planning process and not just blindly seeking local minima, a human can make big changes to designs even if the middle ones wouldn't be very good, which evolution can't.
gollark: And despite randomly breaking in bizarre ways, living stuff has much better self-repair than any human designs.
gollark: No human could come up with the really optimized biochemistry we use and make it work as well as evolution did, so in that way it's more "intelligent".
gollark: Intelligence is poorly defined, really.
