Responsibility accompanies scientific progress from "summary" of The Genesis Machine by Amy Webb,Andrew Hessel
As we forge ahead into the uncharted territory of genetic engineering, we must not forget that every breakthrough comes with a weighty burden of responsibility. The power to manipulate the building blocks of life is not a privilege to be taken lightly. Rather, it is a solemn duty that requires careful consideration and ethical reflection at every turn. With great scientific progress comes great potential for both good and harm. The ability to cure diseases, enhance crops, and even create entirely new organisms holds immense promise for the betterment of humanity. However, these same technologies also have the capacity to wreak havoc on the natural world, disrupt ecosystems, and even threaten the very fabric of society itself. In our pursuit of scientific knowledge, we must always be mindful of the consequences of our actions. We cannot afford to be reckless or cavalier in our approach to genetic engineering. Rather, we m...
