I don’t think it’s reasonable to compare a modern computer program to a human. They’re probably more comparable to a virus. I doubt we have any computer programs today that rise up to the level of a bacterium, let alone anything more advanced on the scale of life. Most of our most advanced software systems are probably about as complex as a cellular metabolic pathway or mechanism. It’s hard to be clear on that though as they’re not really directly comparable.
