We are doomed we are saved #16

Synthetic biology - the artificial creation of biological molecules, cells, and even organisms - has the potential to revolutionize biotechnology and agriculture, allowing for the creation of novel biomaterials and fuels, opening new opportunities for DNA-based information storage and computation, and even aiding in the exploration and colonization of space. The first synthetic bacterium was created about ten years ago, and since then, the technologies supporting synthetic biology have become faster, cheaper, and more innovative. With the assistance of artificial intelligence, synthetic biology could unlock vast potential, recognized by various industries. Synthetic biology could also enable bad actors to create harmful microbes.
