RE: The Dark Future That Tech Might Lead Us To (Part II)

in #technology7 years ago

Tyrants have surely been created throughout history thanks to tech advances and I think it will continue to happen in the future as well. The gene editing could be a solution but in the wrong hands even this could go horribly wrong for us. Let's just hope that saner people overpower the insane ones.

Sort:  

I agree and I think CRISPR is the most lethal thing ever for humans. Tomorrow we will have designer babies and cure for some diseases too by gene editing. But this is the biggest threat to the evolution of human species as it is the result of adaptation while CRISPR just eliminates any chance of evolving.
Example: Cold and Flu are problems but they do leave strengthening immune system.
What will happen to a body (genetically edited) which never fell ill once it catches a cold or flu or some new disease?
