The human body is kind of like how machine learning works.

We have the hardware, which is our body, and the software, which we can call our soul.

When the hardware gets old, expires, or is heavily damaged, it eventually breaks down and returns to the environment, just like a machine that can no longer function.

But then comes an interesting question:

What role do our parents' genetics play in all of this?

Maybe we can look at genetics as the initial configuration of the hardware.

When a new body is created, our parents' genetics don't exactly decide everything we will become. But they set some of the basic fundamentals of the system: things like our physical structure, certain biological tendencies, and the way our brain and body are built.

It's almost like giving a machine its initial configuration before the operating system starts learning.

Then the soul, our operating system, gets fitted into this new hardware.

And from there, it starts learning again from scratch.

It doesn't remember its previous name, home, relationships, experiences, or anything else from the previous lifetime. All that local data is gone.

Instead, it starts learning from its new environment.

It learns a language, recognizes people, understands emotions, builds memories, develops habits, and slowly creates a completely new identity around the new hardware and its surroundings.

So maybe our parents provide the initial configuration, the new body provides the hardware, the environment provides the training data, and the soul is the operating system that learns through the whole process.

And when that hardware eventually expires, perhaps the process starts again.

Maybe what we call a new life is just another training cycle.
