The human race as we know it today, doesn&#x27;t have dozens of generations. We&#x27;ll be a radically different species in just 200 to 300 years, through self-controlled evolution that has already begun.<p>Before the end of this century we&#x27;ll be directly editing the genome of every child born in the first world. Human evolution is no longer in nature&#x27;s hands, and it will never be again unless technological progress rolls backwards drastically (at the rate it&#x27;s accelerating, that is possible but unlikely; it&#x27;s more likely we&#x27;re about to achieve lift-off in regards to rapid evolution; if you think CRISPR is interesting, just wait until you see what we have in just 30 years).
