Human Genetic Engineering
:!!:
Positive
:<3:
Effects on the Industries
:star:
Traditional: It takes away the need for machines because now people with enhancements can do tasks all by themselves. It also creates a whole new job of extracting the genomes as resources for this new industry.
Developed: Creates a whole new industry for people to work in and to manage. The human genetic engineering industry can create a market for people to sell augmentations.
Developing: It takes away the need for many people working in a factory because they can now be replaced with a superintelligent human and a bunch of machines.
Allows for more people to join the Quaternary Sector. Especially in researching on human genetic engineering.
Effects on Society
It gives certain individuals an advantage over others.
It can level the playing field for the poorest of the population.
It makes society as a whole closer because now everyone shares even more similar DNA (the DNA of the optimal human.
Effects on People's Lives
:check:
Helps to treat and fight against deadly diseases such as Parkinson's, Cancer, and Diabetes
Gets rid of illnesses from unborn children.
Removes unwanted DNA from unborn children.
People can live longer and healthier lives.
Advances our abilities to make us faster, stronger, and smarter.
Negative
:warning:
Effects on the Industries
Traditional: Many people will lose their jobs by being replaced with a solitary human. It can also put industrialisation and the advancement of humans backwards because we would be relying on humans instead of automation.
Developing: It puts people out of their jobs in factories.
Developed: Many people would also be losing their jobs because they will all be replaced.
Effects on Society
:red_flag:
Further Divides the Rich and the Less Fortunate. This puts them at a disadvantage.
New Class Systems would be formed based on various augmentations.
people will lose what makes them unique, their special DNA.
Effects on People's Lives
It is not morally correct or ethical to enhance a human especially unborn babies without consent.
It goes against different cultural and religious beliefs.
It can potentially lead to defecting genes from over modification.
Neutral
:green_cross:
Changes the genetic structure of people.
Creates 3 parent babies and can be used in the health field.
Enhances the human body to be able to perform tasks better.
5 W's
:tada:
Where: In Pennsylvania (Herbert Boyer), China (did first successful operation last year)
When: the first company was founded in 1976.
What: Human Genetic Engineering is the act of editing genomes to enhance people's genes. This is used to replace genomes of humans with other species to make them faster, stronger, smarter. It is also used to treat diseases. E. Coli is used to produce more insulin to save the lives of millions.
Why: It can be the future of human evolution, where we are in full control of our evolution and we can change the parts of being human that we do not like.
Who: Herbert Boyer founded Genentech Inc. (the first company)
