@St_Rev@RachelHaywire @oddblots There are biological reasons why too heavily favoring specific genes could be bad http://atavisionary.com/avoid-monoculture/ … -
@Atavisionary@St_Rev@RachelHaywire @oddblots This observation is normative, not predictive of what will happen. -
@Atavisionary@St_Rev@RachelHaywire @oddblots "Sure, society needs a variety of genes, but I want the BEST for my child." -
@abramdemski There are some obvious win-wins (correct individual mutational load) and then, probably, a ton of tradeoffs. -
@St_Rev people will focus on the obvious or the tradeoffs pop cult thinks are obvious. -
@abramdemski Most likely scenario I think is one where parents get their genomes error-corrected and then select mods. -
@St_Rev Agreed. First step is selecting healthiest embryos for implantation. Select against problem genes. Still way powerful. - End of conversation
