Can We Store All Internet Data in Our DNA?

Since the 20th century, humanity has made incredible technological advancements. One of the biggest challenges we have faced during this process is where and how to store the vast amounts of data and information we produce. Could the solution to this problem have been right in front of us all along?

The artificial intelligence industry, which has been on our minds for a long time, continues to make headlines with its significant advancements in recent years, and owes much of its growth to data science. Where and how is the fuel of artificial intelligence, data, being stored today? And how can DNA molecules, which cannot even be seen with the naked eye, make a difference?

Most of our data is stored on the devices we use and on the servers of some companies. However, this method is not very practical in the long run. Especially our personal data is stored on disks called "Hard Disk" (HDD) in our computers, and on flash memories in our mobile phones.
