CRISPR babies made global headlines—but ethical concerns still loom large. Should we enhance intelligence or physical traits? Who decides what’s ‘better’?

There’s no way to deny that CRISPER has taken over the global headlines, but on the other way no one is interested in the ethical concerns.
Although there is no way of downfall in such techniques but one should be aware of some limitations included in the techniques.
Because these techniques seems to be very fancy but on the other hand on one wants to know about the other side.
And the point of enhancing the intelligence or the physical trait, I think they are two way apart and should never be used as a weapon and given encouragement.
It’s needed to be used in the welfare of society.

I believe we must draw the line at the very concept of enhancement. The idea of “improvement” is subjective and enabling personal preferences in something so sacred as creation can eventually lead us down a dark road of societal division and dysfunction. The ethical concerns surrounding genetically modified embryos is immense, and not to mention medically unpredictable. We must refrain from playing God.

CRISPR opens exciting medical possibilities, but enhancing traits like intelligence or appearance enters ethically shaky ground. Who decides what’s ideal—and at what cost?
Without inclusive regulation and societal consensus, such choices could deepen inequality and identity issues. Progress must be guided by empathy, not just science or ambition.
