In a tweet, what’s a specific future technology you’re excited about? Why? (Ex: end of genetic disease, robotic housekeepers, nuclear powered water desalination, holidays on Olympus Mons, AR assistants to memory, modular housing, walkable cities that run on sunshine, …)

I'm *super* excited about genetically modified humans. Looking forward to people who are not only healthier, more cognitively flexible and more physically capable, but also happier and more altruistic

I think it's a genuine possibility that human beings will solve some of our worst, seemingly-intractable cooperation problems as a result of modifying ourselves away from our species baseline on tribalism/aggression

Life is computationally irreducible. We have been doing this already for millions of years through natural selection. Designer humans, rather than humans born out of love, are subject to the tyranny of their creator

To create a more human society we need to become more human ourselves
