People today seem to be fascinated by the idea of robots and advanced technology in the future that nobody seems to realize the dangers of artificial intellegence. In 1948, Norbert Weiner, the founder of the science cybernectics warned that " intelligent machines could wreak havoc on civilization". Since then numerous amounts of movies and books have come out with the plot od robots and technology taking over. People want these machines to do all our tasks in the future, basically being our servents. But Weiner stated that "keen intelligence and groveling submission do not go hand and hand". He compares the technology to being slaves to humans, and just like in history the slaves will retaliate.

The US Federal government wants to expand space exploration beyond the earths mesosphere. they want to provide newer space shuttle programs so they can further exploration in space. NASA is planning on building new satellites and orbiting communications. They eventually want to put a man on mars, and they would need new technologies to make that happen. President George Bush called for a constellation which resulted in a cancellation of space travel until 2020. At least for moon exploration.

Forget about designer babies-gene editing won’t work on complex traits like intelligence

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Despite the successes in gene discovery of the past 10 years, our knowledge of the combined contribution of all genetic variants is too limited for embryo editing. Even when all genes and their complex interactions are completely understood, our ability to use gene editing for favorable traits will remain limited because human traits are just not genetic enough.

This article come from an academic journal called Science and Technology Libraries. CRISPR produces affordable and efficient genome editing technology that can be used on anything with DNA. CRISPR takes DNA and removes and replaces bits and pieces to produce a desired trait. CRISPR has produced some ethical controversies over how much is too much. For example, engineering cows to have more muscle mass but rendering them practically immobile raises concerns on quality of life for those animals.

Advances in pattern recognition and in the processing of natural language, along with neural networks, made possible the availability of systems capable of such activities on a rudimentary level as visual character recognition, handwriting recognition, speech recognition, and machine translation of foreign languages. The goal of a fully autonomous robot vehicle or ambulatory machine that could navigate an unknown terrain entirely on its own remained unfulfilled.

EBSCO:  Climate geoengineering has been proposed as a potential tool to minimize global harm from anthropogenic climate change. Here, an Earth system model is used to evaluate the climate response when transferring from a high CO2 forcing scenario, RCP8.5, to a middle-of-the-road forcing scenario, like RCP4.5, using aerosol geoengineering.

In the Washington Post article, Scientists create 'designer yeast' in major step toward synthetic life, they make the point derived from  Johns Hopkins computational biologist Joel Bader that  "A lot of synthetic biology is motivated by that idea... you only understand something when you can build it.... Well, now we know enough about biological systems that we can design a chromosome on a computer, synthesize it in a laboratory, put it in the cell, and it will work."   Jef Boeke, director of New York University Langone's Institute for Systems Genetics said that "let the yeast do the work and let the yeast teach us new biology...It's like a version of the lottery in which you can continuously and instantaneously roll new numbers until you get a result you want,"(March 9, 2017). http://link.galegroup.com/apps/doc/A484722759/OVIC?u=j101913002&sid=OVIC&xid=66034175.

This article comes from EBSCO and tells that CRISPR is an acronym for "clustered regular inter spaced short palindromic repeats" and is used to genetically modify the genetic makeup of someone. The biggest reason behind this science is to prevent illnesses such as cancer. It is still being perfected but has come a long way since its beginnings. CRISPR is a prevention method, not a cure to change something that has already happened, such as an identifiable trait before birth that signifies cancer in later life.
