the biological technologies at DARPA.

Our flagship programs include revolutionizing prosthetics.

We're now closing the loop where a man and machine

can be integrated together.

Humanity change will change more in the next 20 years

than all of recent history.

And I do think that we are on a trajectory towards this.

On the up slope, if you can see it, there's things like human

2.0, human machine convergence.

These are things that are somewhere on the horizon

that genome engineering and gene editing will be a part of.

So how do we make sure that we can pursue this future

in a safe manner?

What about enhancing that baseline state?

So there's defensive enhancement.

We do this already, actually.

Think about vaccination.

So when you're vaccinated, you actually
