Homo Sapiens: Are We the First Software Species?

Homo Sapiens: Are We the First Software Species?: "For humans, our software, which we call our 'culture,' has become ever more important to our behavior. Homo sapiens sapiens is now predominately a software species, governed primarily by factors outside the genome, some of which are extrasomatic, outside the body. In short, today what makes us unique as a species is not what's stored in our DNA, but in our laws, music, traditions, and digital libraries."
