Birth of the future or dystopian hellscape?

According to the report, an "Elite Package" would allow people to "genetically engineer the embryo before implanting it into the artificial womb."

It's an article and video.

Personally I see this as a dystopian hellscape that has "master race" concepts dripping from every corner.

1. Aldous Huxley thought of this in 1932 in Brave New World.

3. "Gattaca." That was the whole point of the movie.

5. Saw that too

So far every comparison has been a dark, dystopian hellscape

4. We'll end up with a lot of Max Zorins running around

That's what Republicans want anyway.

6. That isn't even possible. He just throws shit like this out

all the time - like the "Hyper-loop" - remember that one?
This is just dumb.

8. Completely agree /NT

7. We are a long way from being able to do anything like that,

even if we wanted. Just more Musk nuttiness - and the world needs a greater population like it needs WW3.

Methinks Musk has become a bit of crackpot. He kinda reminds me of a Howard Hughes/Trump/Moe Howard clone.
