From whose point of view is the box "good" or "bad"?

As Darwin pointed out, there is not much difference between artificial selections and natural selections except that under natural selection nobody knows what is being selected for until after it happens.

As far as the program was concerned it did not know good from bad, it only had to discriminate between the two or be replaced by an iteration of the program that knew better.
