Neural networks and machine learning are examples of software modifying itself to better solve a problem, given certain parameters that describe a "successful" run. This is what I do for a living: data analysis.

Software only does exactly what you tell it to do. If you program it to "evolve", it will.

These modifications in nature are random due to imperfect DNA replication in gametes, and the parameters that describe a successful run for the organism are "did the iteration live and reproduce"

This mechanism is extremely well understood and documented.

You may be more educated on these subjects and I may not be able to eloquently convey my understanding but I still think your wrong. There has never been any specimen found that demonstrates cross species transition. The only outside force to DNA change is variation within its species code. Traits can change through natural selection but not whole species. Many levels of processes would have to evolve not just the DNA. Proteins, RNA, etc. Explain to me how DNA can be unzipped and then zip back together using different chemical (coded) puzzle pieces with different code that won’t even fit together. The information is exacting just like digital information. Wolf DNA has proteins that won’t physically fit with whale proteins. Mathematic probability says its absurd to suggest this. Your welcome to your opinion but you haven’t put forth any good support for the argument of evolution. I suggest you widen your research to include information and arguments against evolution to understand better. It’s clear that the evolution lie has been pushed in scientific circles for far too long. Science as of late is actively moving away from the argument for evolution.

The beautiful thing about scientific theories is that new information is revealed, and theories change. I'll keep an open mind and an eye out for new research on the subject
