Episode description
In this week’s edition of the AC Podcast, we use the Nucleus Embryo program as a springboard for a deep dive into some of the most pressing ethical questions of our time. We unpack how technologies like IVF interlock with our view towards enhancing humanity, and whether this is a modern day form of eugenics. What does genetic “optimization” imply? Is there anything wrong with using technology to enhance human life? What are the promises and perils of human enhancement? Join us as we wrestle with these questions.
