I want Vietnamese subtitles

Amazing!

Grooming you for the mark of the beast.
No thanks.

Once upon a time a great balanced view of the ethical questions behind the genius here ... the ending conclusion is : it is not the technology that is problematic, it is what we do with it ... but having said that ... Let's look at the world out there, isn't it too early to use this since humanity is still massively attracted to "money" and power ... so that it is quite clear that this technology will be used badly and will have disastrous consequences ... We shall put real efforts understanding what makes this planet a nice and peaceful place, and what do we want to see in the future ? Is the future driven by "love", "compassion", "ethic", "democracy", "agroecokogy", "sustainability" and "reforestation" for example ? ... Not yet ...

Take your Transhumanist Agenda and edit yourselves away from the rest of us. We don't want to be around you either.

You have to ask permission to edit it, but not to kill it? If consent is on the parent to make the choice for abortion - why not for gene editing?

I don't see the problem here. We have medicine that cures or suppresses diseases.

This is essentially the same thing but on a cellular level and it would work for things like cancer that we have been working on for literally decades with little or no success.

It could literally eradicate fatal diseases around the world.

Stopping deafness isn’t genocide. I’m not seeing the ethical issue.

love her talks I still think that using other animals is unethical, even if there are millions of pigs being slaughtered for the meat industry

Great speaker

I enjoy these talks greatly - as I did the first book. I have the second one (Junk DNA) next to my bedside...but am considering reading the latest one (which I just saw in a booksop last week) next...thinking it will contain the latest research. I would like to know your (Nessa) thoughts on the opinions of David Sinclair about the role of epigenetics on aging (I also read his book, and watched several of his talks). Certainly in 2015, you felt the epigenetics played a minor role in aging, whereas he thinks it plays a very major role. Have you since 2015 adapted your views on this, or do the two of you still differ strongly on your views about aging?

That was a brilliant presentation!

Salvation is only for Humans. Any altering with your DNA will disqualify you. Be careful.

Disagree… you thought dna and genes couldnt change once, now you say once they change theyre stuck like that, but i call BS. Chrck back in 100 years to see im right.

Its a perfect imperfection. Theres always an exception. We are gods

We allow science to progress while we work for miniscule wages. They should share the wealth, these generous “donator’s “

Yeah, but he put china on the map again knowing they “can do it”

So how do I edit my DNA?

How to download DNA editing software?

Some of these arguments are silly. I don't think anyone is going to complain if we cure deafness and don't need sign language anymore...

what if i want to remove any native american or sub saharan dna from my acestry?
