Tank, firstly - my reply is clearer and more accurate than the AI text you pasted.
Secondly - what exactly was your point in posting it? You replied to a question with the wrong answer, then doubled down instead of admitting it.
It’s obvious to everyone that you skimmed the headline and never actually examined what the study was about or whether it addressed the question being asked. That’s what I meant by “doing a Jambo.” Ironically, your AI-generated response ends up admitting my very point: the study doesn’t demonstrate evolution, mutations, or the emergence of heritable information, which was the core of my original challenge.
In other words, you’ve just confirmed that your first reply was a deflection built on a headline, not an understanding of the science.
What's next, maybe a link to a Fake Dave video? Why not go 'full Jambo'? - as you're already halfway there.
Because if you wanted it, you can ask your AI engine to spin it positive, for the same article.

"This discovery provides powerful support for the overall theory of
evolution by strengthening its necessary foundation:
abiogenesis, the natural origin of life. The finding that simple, prebiotic chemistry could have readily synthesized the building blocks of both
DNA and
RNA using a common compound, diamidophosphate (
DAP), eliminates a massive theoretical hurdle. Biological evolution, driven by natural selection, can only begin once a
self-replicating molecule capable of carrying heritable information exists. By showing that the primary genetic molecules (DNA/RNA) could have arisen through common, non-biological chemical pathways on the early Earth, this research provides the essential, naturalistic starting point required by the theory of evolution, lending credibility to the entire
continuum of life from simple chemistry to complex organisms.
Furthermore, the discovery supports an evolutionary framework by proposing a model of
gradualism and continuity. Instead of viewing the "RNA World" as a discrete stage followed by a miraculous jump to modern DNA-based life, the research suggests the first replicators were likely
chimeric molecules, part RNA and part DNA. This suggests the transition from the earliest, most primitive genetic systems to the highly stable, double-stranded
DNA of modern cells was not a sudden, unexplainable event, but a smooth, evolutionary process built on a shared set of simple chemical reactions. This continuous, stepwise path from chemical complexity to biological complexity reinforces the core evolutionary principle that all of life's complex features, including its fundamental genetic machinery, arose through natural, measurable steps over deep time."
