? The<\/strong> debate over genetic embryo modification isn\u2019t new<\/strong> \u2014 it has been stirring up controversy and serious ethical concerns for decades, warranting a ban in several countries. But in Silicon Valley, where money talks, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman \u2014 who has made a career out of raising<\/a>bns<\/a>for empty promises<\/a> \u2014 is taking this on as his latest venture. He and husband software engineer Oliver Mulherin, along with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong<\/a>, have invested in Preventive, a San Francisco startup focused on embryo modification, raising USD 30 mn in seed funding, according to the Wall Street Journal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What we know: <\/strong>Founded this past May, the biotech startup allegedly wants to modify embryos before birth to prevent certain genetic diseases. The company is currently shopping around for a country that allows embryo modification so that they can start experimenting \u2014 and the UAE is reportedly on their shortlist. CEO Lucas Harrington noted that they are being forced to look outside the US due to the FDA refusing to review human trial applications that involve embryo modification.<\/p>\n

From exclusive matchmaking services for high-IQ singles<\/strong> to companies like Herasight<\/a> and Nucleus Genomics<\/a> that promise to predict your future child\u2019s intelligence and risk for conditions like ADHD and anxiety, it\u2019s no secret that the Silicon Valley elite are obsessed<\/a> with creating the \u201cperfect\u201d child to build a legacy of intelligence. This comes from the belief that producing smarter generations will protect humanity from future threats, turning embryos into consumer products with a tagline of USD 50k each.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen this before <\/strong>\u2014 in 2018, Chinese scientist He Jiankui shocked the world by announcing that three babies had been born from genetically modified embryos, with their genes edited to make them immune to HIV. He was promptly jailed<\/a> by Chinese authorities for three years and hit with a hefty fine for crossing ethical lines and violating the government\u2019s ban on human embryo experiments.<\/p>\n

Genetic screening already exists:<\/strong> Many medical companies already offer genetic screening for embryos during IVF procedures, spotting certain diseases to help parents decide whether to use, freeze, or discard embryos. But since current screening only catches specific conditions like cystic fibrosis and Tay-Sachs disease, some tech companies are pushing polygenic screening<\/a>, a method of extracting DNA from embryos and running it through statistical algorithms to predict a much wider range of traits and potential health issues.<\/p>\n

Polygenic screening isn\u2019t medically or clinically useful<\/strong>, a report from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics was cited in an investigation last year. It hasn\u2019t been proven whether embryos that flagged any of the markers will actually carry the indicated diseases once they develop, so making IVF decisions based on mere probabilities isn\u2019t much different from fortunetelling.<\/p>\n

The nature or nurture debate has entered the chat. <\/strong>Treating genetics as the end-all-be-all ignores<\/a> the importance of the child\u2019s environment on their development. Gene-environment interactions show<\/a> that most human traits and diseases are influenced by complex environmental factors such as chemicals in the air or water, nutrition, ultraviolet radiation, and social context. Genetically identical organisms often vary greatly in phenotype, clearly showing that development is dynamic.<\/p>\n

Another legitimate argument foresees access to exclusive medical service being <\/strong>limited to a small group of wealthy people<\/strong>, and the treatment of children as customizable products that can be designed to order, completely disregarding human dignity, which is a natural human right, not one that one group should grant to another.<\/p>\n

\u201cEither lying, delusional, or both.\u201d<\/strong> Fyodor Urnov, director at UC Berkeley's Innovative Genomics Institute, told WSJ that Preventive\u2019s leaders would not be \u201cworking on genetic diseases\u201d if they were genuinely interested in treating disease \u2014 even experts do not understand everything about how genes interact with each other, and warn that \u201can embryo\u2019s genes could be passed down to future generations, including unintended mistakes.\u201d <\/p>\n

Preventive\u2019s philanthropic guise is achieving a revolutionary biological breakthrough <\/strong>that eliminates chronic disease, but that spells a bigger problem for humanity.<\/strong> If an entity can delete a genetic component responsible for a specific disease, how can we guarantee that they won\u2019t add or modify genes in a harmful way, whether purposefully or not? The technology being banned in many countries means that there is no regulatory authority that can prevent its misuse or exploitation, whether by the company, others, or health ins. conglomerates. Preventive is currently a non-profit organization, but with Sam Altman now on board, we can see another OpenAI switch<\/a> in the works.<\/p>\n

A bleak future on the horizon? <\/strong>Just as major companies have benefited<\/a> from Palestinian genocide through arms dealing or manufacturing, this technology \u2014 if it becomes reality \u2014 could become a tool that defines (or disfigures) entire generations. Preventive\u2019s experiments remain on hold pending either regulatory approval or finding a host country for trials, concerns persist about how far human ambition driven by grand slogans could go in pursuit in the name of innovation and endless income.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
