Vol 2 Chapter 590: Concerns about human genetic modification

"Go upstairs! There must be something strange! The recruitment profile of the company is so clear!" For the company's future interstellar immigration plan, the company's research and development categories include space physiology, space disease, and human body enhancement ...And other related research!'
People's research and development goals are so clearly written on it, what else do not understand! "
"Yes! The purpose of establishing this new company is obviously to deal with the various physical problems that we humans will encounter after entering space in the future!
But what I am most concerned about is the human body enhancement research and development project. The potential ethical, legal and social issues that this technology may bring are many. Has Infinite Gravity Group made relevant preparations?
We must know that research related to human body strengthening is very risky. If we accidentally develop a genetic medicine that destroys the world, it will be finished!
Isn't it like that in movies like Resident Evil? Big companies regard life as a plaything! "
"The research on human body enhancement medicine is theoretically feasible, but it not only involves ethical and moral issues, but also tests the evolutionary speed of the human body over thousands of years.
Even if scientific research is carried out, it must be illegal and invisible at the moment, or it only exists in movies. It depends on mutation and rich handsomeness depends on equipment. It is better not to be obsessed with this field. "
"Yeah! I don’t understand why the Infinite Gravity Group has announced the human body enhancement research. It took us millions of years to evolve into what we are now. If we use technology to modify our genes to obtain special The rapid evolution is not very reliable to think about!"
Regarding why the Infinite Gravity Group listed the human body reinforcement research as the company's official research, not only the netizens have expressed their own opinions on this matter, but also various media have expressed disapproval!
"Human beings are the product of the earth's long-term natural evolution, and due to the evolution of human intelligence and the rapid development of science and technology after modern times, humans have developed the ability to intervene in the evolutionary process.
Biotechnology can completely change people's lives and the direction of evolution. Biotechnology can not only alienate human beings themselves, but also alienate their living environment. In the past, human beings survived by adapting to nature, but today and in the future, leading genetic technology can create "superman".
Therefore, biotechnology can dominate the direction of human evolution and trigger a fierce and thorough social revolution. Research in the field of genes has actually begun long ago!
Agricultural genetically modified technology is one of the most popular and fastest-growing research fields in the world today. It provides humans with a large amount of genetically modified food. The planting area of ​​genetically modified crops worldwide has expanded from 1.7 million hectares in 1996 to 5,000 hectares at the end of 2001. At present, there are at least 1 billion people eating genetically modified foods.
Genetically modified technology is closely related to human life and has attracted worldwide attention. Some countries have promulgated policies to actively support the development and application of genetically modified agricultural technology, and some countries, especially some countries in Europe, have doubts and panics about genetically modified food, and have demanded restrictions on the sale of genetically modified food.
Transgenic technology is to operate at the genetic level, change existing genes, improve or even create new species. DNA is the blueprint of life. Once genes are altered, it may cause a series of unknown structural and functional changes in the organism, and this change will be passed on through genetics, producing countless copies and passing on from generation to generation.
If genetically modified technology is improperly applied, once adverse consequences occur, its harm will continue to expand and spread. For example, people are generally concerned about whether foreign genes introduced into organisms, especially humans, will affect other important regulatory genes, and even activate proto-oncogenes!
Will the widespread application of genetically modified technology lead to the emergence of new pathogens that are difficult to eliminate, whether it will cause ecological disasters, and whether human ingestion of large amounts of genetically modified food will affect the health of humans and their offspring?
At present, it is difficult to make clear answers to these questions with definite experimental evidence, because certain influences and effects are currently difficult to detect, or it is necessary to analyze several generations before conclusions can be drawn.
Using genetic technology to change the various natural states of living things, our indirect contact with such technology has already made people very scared, let alone directly modifying our own genes!
Although we have always known that many countries and many ambitious organizations are conducting this kind of research, but to publish this matter directly, Infinite Gravity Group is really the first!
Technology is used by those who master it. When technology is applied to society, it will reflect the purpose of people. Different technological values ​​will produce different social effects. People with ulterior motives may also use technology to harm the society~EbookFREE.me~ to harm human beings. At this time, technical means act as a disgraceful role.
Many technological achievements are originally for the benefit of mankind, but because their potential uses include threats to man and human society, they are still worrying.
In July 2002, a research team in the United States synthesized the first polio virus in the laboratory!
The method of rebuilding bacteria is even simpler! Artificial viruses can help scientists genetically modify animals and plants, and help doctors treat certain diseases.
But what is worrying is that if this technology is abused, for example, to make biological and chemical weapons, the results will be unpredictable. What's more, some technologies, especially weapon technologies, were developed for a clear purpose, which is to harm people.
Regardless of the rapid expansion of biotechnology itself or the improper use of biotechnology by humans, there are certain reasons for some people to worry about the possibility of "bioterrorism" in the future.
Therefore, science and technology are beautiful, but human mastery and use can determine the fate of science and technology, and can also affect the future and destiny of all mankind!
Science and technology can benefit mankind, or harm mankind or even destroy mankind. If mankind wants to master its own future and destiny, it must first master its own science and technology, and steer the voyage of science and technology.
Large companies such as Infinite Gravity Group should pay more attention to their sense of social responsibility. I think they should be more cautious in the research of human strengthening drugs! "
This article is titled "Are Humans Really Ready to Accept the Advent of Human Strengthening Technology?" As soon as the article was published by the media, it received a lot of reprints and praises. Everyone is really worried about the unpredictable consequences of such human strengthening technology!
