A similar example from across the pond
Here is another instance where a software construct figured out genetic rules. Impressive.
Lab 'robot' "Adam formed a hypothesis on the genetics of bakers’ yeast and carried out experiments to test its predictions, without intervention from its makers at Aberystwyth University.
The result was a series of “simple but useful†discoveries, confirmed by human scientists, about the gene coding for yeast enzymes"

Sadly, American researchers have been unable to validate the resullt as Adam's Brit accent is virtually undecipherable.
