Walter Isaacson in his new book about this year’s Nobel Prize recipient, Jennifer Doudna who invented CRISPR technology, which he says will be 10 times more impactful than the digital revelation.

It may well enable bio-digital integration.

I already know way too many people who have the brains of plants.

Remains to be seen. You never know how things workout in the real world.

Will there be a biohacker Github? We could have guys like Sebastian from Blade Runner.

If only you could see what I have seen with your eyes

CRISPR technology is one step closer to our overlords having complete control of the fate of humanity…

My jean therapy is Lee Carpenter jeans. I like the way they fit and those little pockets on the right leg are cool! Please don't jeanetically modify them, they are fine as they are.

Genocide in the womb?

We can now do to people what we have been doing to dogs for hundreds of years.

The first person I thought of when I read this and watched the YouTube segments was Catnip’s son. What if this technology could help him with his kidney disease and block its inheritability.

Everything can be abused, but I see this as an end to many diseases.


Schrodie, what is your own opinion here?

I think the singularity is inevitable and just a matter of time.
I just hope Dr. Doudna’s nightmare, where Hitler comes and asks her for the CRISPR technology, is never realized.
I don't think the good guys will be in charge of that technology or AI forever.
Elon Musk worries about AI being turned into weapons, when they already have. Drones are just flying AI and the government has been buying more Drones than traditional planes for the past 5 years, ever since Obama dropped a bomb from a drone every 20 minutes of his Presidency.
