Veritasium: Simulating The History Of Life

Simulating The History Of Life takes you on a wild ride from the humble stink of poop to the very dawn of life, breaking down gene mutations, natural selection, and kin selection in easy-to-grasp video chapters. By using clever computer models, it shows how random changes and survival pressures drive evolution at every step.

Along the way, it brings Richard Dawkins’ Selfish Gene theory to life, illustrating how genes “compete” for persistence, how we inherit traits, and why cooperation among relatives can be a winning strategy. Ultimately, the video makes you wonder: is life itself one giant simulation?
