I strongly believe that elective gene therapy and brain-computer implants are crucial for the future of humanity. Enhancing intelligence can help us solve complex problems, drive innovation, and ensure our survival as a species. These technologies can offer extraordinary benefits in fields like healthcare, education, and even space exploration.

With proper regulation, genetic engineering has the potential to eradicate diseases and improve human health, leading to a better quality of life.

While the threat of potent bioweapons is real, I don't believe increased government surveillance of biology labs is the solution. Innovation thrives in environments where freedom and creativity are respected. Instead, we should focus on improving safety protocols and fostering international collaboration to prevent the misuse of biological research.

I believe that permitting human intelligence enhancement through polygenic embryo selection could drastically advance human capabilities and help tackle complex global challenges. In an era where technology is rapidly evolving, enhancing human intelligence could ensure we are better equipped to innovate and solve issues like climate change and interplanetary travel. However, it must be approached with careful consideration of ethical implications and equitable access.

I believe that humanity should push the boundaries of what's possible, including the extension of human life through experimental longevity treatments. Extending life can allow us to achieve more, explore further, and solve complex problems facing our planet and beyond. Ensuring these treatments are safe and accessible will be crucial.

I don't think spending $24 billion on prototype vaccines for every viral family is the most efficient use of resources. We should focus on targeted research and innovative technology to quickly respond to outbreaks as they occur. Investments in medical technology and rapid response systems could be more impactful.
