If a person is programmed at birth, then it is no longer a person. Even Christianity with the concept of Predestination insists that man has (real, not simulated) free will, which even perfect angels do not have. And no adequate scientist (and not a popularizer like R. Sapolsky) will claim that a person is completely deprived of freedom.
And then everything is simple: if there is freedom, then there is choice, consequences and randomness – which means that happiness and unhappiness depend on a lot. Both from personal actions and from the context. Including from our unconscious beliefs (for which many simply do not allow themselves to become happy) – but this can be changed in personal psychotherapy.
The program according to which animals act is instinct.
