DNA learns in a sense, it accumulates information. But it is so slow. DNA accumulates information through random errors, some of which just happen to work. But DNA had actually generated a faster way of learning:

it had produced organisms with brains, and those organisms can learn in real time. They accumulate information, they learn. The sad thing is, when they die, the information dies with them.

Now what makes humans different is human language. We are blessed with a language, a system of communication, so powerful and so precise that we can share what we've learned with such precision that it can accumulate in the collective memory.

And that means it can outlast the individuals who learned that information, and it can accumulate from generation to generation.

And that's why, as a species, we're so creative and so powerful, and that's why we have a history.

We seem to be the only species in four billion years to have this gift.

Fossil fuels and collective learning together explain the staggering complexity we see around us.
