Read Metzl's book "Hacking Darwin!" I just finished it and he delves into all of these ideas in much more detail. We're living in what will be defined, as he calls it, the "Genetic Revolution." That's pretty amazing, if you think about it. It really is absurd that we're preoccupying ourselves with any other kinds of news, as he alludes to in his intro, like what celebrity is marrying who. Indeed, Metzl, Church and Sinclair are going to be looked back on like the Newtons, Galilleos, and Voltaires of the 20th century. I strongly encourage everyone else to watch lectures and interviews with David Sinclair and George Church. I think in a few of the panel discussions, these three compadres are all guests together, or at least two of them. Great Talk! Thanks, TED!
This happens when humans playing to be God! They create our disease with polluted and contaminated food, unhealthy jobs and lifestyle and now they pretend to fix it for our good will!!
@@tinyrockyplanet8953 Good points, Rocky Planet. However, I'll remind that if there weren't any revolutions, we'd still be living with kings and queens. Or worse, we'd have no technology and we wouldn't even be talking right now. Every thing that you enjoy today has been possible by some kind of revolution. The information revolution.The industrial information. The Enlightment. The Great Reformation. And dozens before that. Future ones may include the Space Age, and others. (A.k.a.: the Warp Drive Revolution, and I'm just speculating). From a totally different angle, all of these hesitations of why this technology could be dangerous almost reaffirms of why it's crucial. That is, we live in a world of mistrust and corruption, what if there was a genomic code that could make people more trusting and less ethically deprived? In other words, the current state of the world is already flawed, so why would you want to perpetuate a flawed model? Moreover, I'll strongly think that you'll be changing your tune once a few dozen family members get saved by CRISPR technology, whether they had leukemia, CF, Huntington's disease - I'm sure you'll change your mind once their lives are saved by this technology. Thoughts?

Someone make an ethical argument against this without using the word god. I’m open to hearing why we shouldn’t be altering human DNA. I personally think we are ethically obligated to future generations to give them the best genetic outcome. Change my mind.
God is not the problem. The only issue I see as a med. student-is that if we make crispr accessible to everyone (which is etically justified) end up messing it up so much we accidentally wipe ourselved out of existence cause there will be no group that just continue following evolution by inertia
Just because we can, doesn't mean we should. There are many good people in this world, and there are also bad people. If you want to leave God out of this subject, that increases your chances that bad people get control of this type of technology and use it for destruction, devastation, depopulation. We owe it to our future generations, just as our past generations have done for us, to allow our bodies to function as they have for the entire existence of humanity. Our immune systems are complex and very effective. Don't you find it funny, humanity goes this long without needing some sort of "gene" editing but in the last 100 years or so, and since bill gae-toes have found some odd infatuation with gene editing, specifically the VMAT2 gene, all of a sudden, "we must do this protect future generations"? WHAT A CROCK-OF-SH*T. That man can't even protect his own software from viruses, why would anyone ever trust him with real ones??? HAVING MONEY DOESN'T MAKE YOU A SMART PERSON. IT MAKES YOU A RICH PERSON, AND IN MOST CASES, THIS IS MORE EFFICIENT.
@@kojosmith1210 real funny. absolutely so funny. lets do a count of how many times science has been wrong in the last, i don't know, 20 years or so. Now compare that to how many times God has ever been wrong... (hint: ZERO TIMES) Life is a dangerous, and empty place without God. I hope you have him in your life, and if you don't, may you find him. He loves us as his children. When we put him first, everything else in life just falls into place.
Why do humans have to be like robots?? What is the point of mind control and of half humans half robots? Why are they making Robots reproducing? If that is not beyond ill minded people who want to erase the actual human race, I do not know what is
Cite the pros and cons of genetic engineering. 2. How important is genetic engineering when it comes to human healthcare? 3. What is a genetic revolution? Cite at least 3 evidence. 4. Explain the importance of CRISPR.
We all know that we can get these diseases and sicknesses but we don’t change our daily habits anyways. We like being comfortable and choosing genetic traits is the perfect comfort zone. They can make us perfect but if habits are not in place at home, then we can still get obese, diabetic, etc. we end up with some of the same problems. It always comes back to lack of exercise, diet, and diligence (for intelligence). I think rich people would be more convinced because of the perfect physical appearance their babies will receive. (Rather than “health”)
He talks about everyone having a seat at the table. What if he gets them all together and they all say no, no matter how much he tries to convince them ? Will he do what he can to stop this or will he throw his hands up and say "this is the future whether you like it or not." Maybe I'm being too judgemental, but I see him wanting to persuade than actually listen to others concerns.
I concur. I felt that too. He was just persuading. I think we just get very overwhelmed when we hear such things, most things around us are so seminal. I'm not denigrating this idea but there are so many notions , merits , perils which should be considered. We need to demystify our notions.
This new tech is inevitable. The amount of disease and suffering that will be eliminated will be almost unbelievable. This should be a relatively affordable process. Maybe even something that can (and is) possible in a home lab. The question for me is, how much will it cost? In other words, who will have access?
@@tinyrockyplanet8953 EXACTLY. He didn't even mention how when using CRISPR, it completely overrides the natural genetic make up of the entire species! If a CRISPR modified fly mates with a regular fly, its offspring will be a direct clone of the modified fly. All of his descendants will have identical genes, which will inevitably lead to a lack of gene diversity; one simple disease could wipe out every one of these modified flies.

The more I listen to this man speaking so emotionally ignorantly of this topic's sheer sensitivity, the more I think TEDx should run a vehement EQ assessment of speakers that approach embryo altering breakthroughs. To me, I've watched quite a few videos so far on CRISPR babies, this man seems the worst possible choice for speaking about embryos.
This guy may have Information...but he doesnt have wisdom....in other words he Has spent too much time in his head and not enough time getting fresh air and learning about natural health
For those that believe in evolution it makes perfect sense to try to improve human kind. The truth, however, is that we were created by God in his own image as soul, spirit and body so genetic modifications will just create more problems not a solution
How can you talk about creationism as "truth" is just what you want to believe Without any evidences. I can tolerate religions, but there are limits to not cross. Religions are just blindfolds for weak and fearful peoples who can't look at the reality and need to submit to something because there are too cowards to accept there are just mere animals on a telluric planet lost in the void of space and absolutely alone because even if extraterrestrial may exist the distance between stars are far too big for hope a contact. Science make humanity progress by its rigorous method and absences of certitudes that permit to always question what we think we know, by this way we improve or knowledge and comprehension of our world. But it's true in the science world there is no comfortable illusion like a wizard who walk on water, multiplying breads and fishes or turning water on wine. The science world may seem cold and fantaisyless, but it is actually our best tool to learn about the world. But I understand you don't want to accept science, you hide in your childish stories because you're too terrifying by your own mortality, so you shut down your brain and blindly believe in a paradise where live an old guy who magically create things. (Sorry for the probable English mistakes, I'm not a native speaker I'm French)
@@mordetwicanon3310 in my humble opinion, it takes more faith to believe in evolution than in creation . Could you give me one example of observable evidence for Darwinian evolution where there is change of kinds. But please remember that the scientific method must be observable and repeatable ( so no faith needs to be exercised ) just one example pls.
@@edytafaron2376 Dog breeds are the most obvious examples. While they aren't different species if we kept breeding them for specific traits they would eventually become one.
