In today's podcast, Jon talks with futurist and bioethicist George Dvorsky about the future of human enhancement. Topics covered include radical life extension, editing the human germline, multiplex parenting, artificial wombs, intelligence augmentation, moral enhancement, and more. How cautious should we be when it comes to enhancing human beings? Is there any merit to the arguments of bioconservatives or are most of their concerns lacking solid grounding? How can we get over the creepiness hurdle and begin to normalize these conversations?
