Computer engineer Robert J. Marks and colleagues demonstrated that there is still no such thing as a free lunch where information is concerned:
Robert J. Marks: Well, my background is not in biology, but it is in computer science and computer engineering. And one of the things we do is do artificial intelligence. And I think maybe your question translated to artificial intelligence is, can anything happen in artificial intelligence from totally random unguided mutations and processes to allow for something to happen? And the answer is absolutely not. Winston Ewert, design theorist William Dembski, and I did a lot of work on analyzing programs that were purported to generate information.
