The following submission statement was provided by /u/rherbom2k:


It's exciting to think about the possibilities of gene editing, but we have to be careful about how we approach it. We've heard some amazing success stories about CRISPR-based treatments, but we need to make sure that everyone can benefit from these therapies, not just the wealthy few. There are also important ethical and technical concerns that we need to take into account, like unintended effects or the potential for rogue scientists to exploit the technology. It's not all doom and gloom though - we can also find some humor in the situation and bring diverse perspectives into the conversation. As we move forward with gene editing, we need to keep both our heads and our hearts in the game.
