A Silicon Valley startup backed by OpenAI’s Sam Altman and Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong is pursuing research that some fear could lead to the birth of a genetically engineered baby — a step that’s illegal under US law and banned in most countries, a report said.

the human race today is already a designer baby - someone needs to explain how the ability to synthesize vitamin C (a vital cofactor for immune system function) endogenously has been edited out of the human genome; most other mammals have the gene; instead of lamenting its disappearance, the mainstream academons actually frame this as an advantage; i sense a very dark ancient conspiracy; source
