Genetic Engineering Will Change Everything Forever – CRISPR



Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell

Designer babies, the end of diseases, genetically modified humans that never age. Outrageous things that used to be science fiction are suddenly becoming reality. The only thing we know for sure is that things will change irreversibly.

  1. instead of creating …"designer babies" i would rather create a whole other human dna abridged species with alien yet anthropomorphic features to set out onto another planet for early ages colonization and showing them basics to live so that the last generation of our kind may not suffer but be safely planted on a planet that will be our successor and safe from harm…

  2. I wish this was availble in the mass market now. The transition would be rocky but imagine a world for our future families a world with no disease no illness and we would be able to live longer think about time and how much more we would be able to achieve tech wise and food and well every thing

  3. But wait, if we remove every single disease, would we lose our immune system, because since we might not be exposed to any disease for, say, 10 years, in year 11, one person immediately pass away because the person has a either weak or no immune system at all and they got a disease? I'm just wondering if we will lose one of our critical systems in the future.

  4. I wish it was here :/ maybe then I go get rid of my adhd ?
    I hate adhd meds so so much. Want to be able to gain 10 pounds. And not lose it within 10 days

  5. If we edit genes then einstein will never be born. A super intelligent sort of humo-robot will be born. There would be no place of Luck and Miracle. Just a breed of humans leaning on science until the universe die. That looks terrible right then why not make ourselves learn about nature and God who born edited humans and robots.

  6. We have come to a point in civilization where human kind has completely disregarded natural selection, we will need this technology to survive from the dna that shouldn't of made it
