Like the way a lot of animals seem to determine if something new is dangerous by the way it behaves. In order to learn you need instincts to keep you alive long enough to learn something.
Theres a great clip on youtube with a white guy crawling up to sime wild lions with a roll of toilet paper. A lion comes over but doesn't know what to do because of the way he's acting...

Yes, and such a relation ahs yet to be established in DB. This idea has yet to be fully tested on a scale similar to earth.

DB is just a rough modelling of real life; even though bots can become extremely complex in behaviour, the lack of interactivity with the environment, limited memory capacities, abstraction of feeding and communtication through ties and shots means that they can never come near to emulating a real-life organism.

I already knew this; the point was to find a balance to build something with enough intelligence and the right genes to become the best bot in DB. A lot of DB needs to be improved, but first start with building bots within the current perameters that can process information, currently DB does imitate real-life with single bots, multibots actually use the speed of light IRL to transmit information, this would require a special set of rules to handle the cycling of tie information be equivelant to that speed which would crash msot of our computers in a matter of two or three generations. Life did not create new boundaries to become succesfull; DB is a harsh realm for any life, there is limited resources and costs reduce the effectiveness of bots with long DNALENs. Create within the boundries of simplicity to exhibit complex like behaviors, that was how Excalibur used to be so succesful, but mini bots will take down a pack of Excals.

Just pointing it out for the benefit of those who think a cold is a Trojan horse virus or where the only web they have ever seen is the internet.
