I remember when we had a med grad AMA, she said CRSIPR is too unpredictable to be feasible, but expected a better method to come out of it. The day has come. MhAX is a gene modifying procedure so precise it can modify a single nucleotide.
At the same time, Mr. Muskrat expresses interest in developing a brain enhancing chip called Neuralink, while an artist is advocating for use of cybernetics as more than just as prosthetics.

10/10, would watch. I kinda felt like biotech would eventually catch up with cybertech and make becoming a cyborg (or at least, a chrome one) unnecessary. Would totes go for vat grown organs made out of my own cells anyday, assuming I can afford it.
Maybe eventually people will just wear glasses solely for aesthetic reasons.

>>174899 Well, there have been projects involving stem cells that virtually everyone's been researching, recently with nanodrops that repair the eyes by Jewish scientists, and, for the cyborgs, a bionic lenses that the Ocumetrics Technology Corporation are working on. It may sound like nothing has ever suceeded, but there are cases of bionic eyes sucessfully implemented on blind people, albeit with very limited sight, such as only being able to see shapes.

Also, speaking of biotech, have you seen this shit, boi? https://youtu.be/F7REp0Y9edA

Biotech is the true future. For many reasons. Cybertech is easier to achive and closer to todays abilities and technology. Just as horse carts are compared to steam engines, in turn compared to internal combustion engines, in turn compared to electric. Ultimately biological constructs are not only the ultimate complexity in nature, but also what we are made of ourselves thus making biotech indistinguishable from natural organisms. Cybertech is already old stuff in my eyes.

Just in. Another possible method to cure blindness has been tested on mice by using titanium and gold to replace the ocular rods and cones. That brings the count up to four.
