Introducing Vitruvian, a genetic optimization model for optimizing human embryo DNA and reportedly being able to increase the IQ of a person by 14 points, nearly a standard deviation which is incredibly significant

AI summary

Nucleus Genomics has introduced Vitruvian, a new set of genetic optimization models designed to optimize human embryo DNA. These models, trained on over 1,000,000 people and validated across 40,000+ siblings using more than 7 million genetic markers, reportedly can increase a person's IQ by 14 points, which is nearly a standard deviation. This development is presented as a way for humanity to keep pace with advancing AI, fulfilling a concept proposed by Nick Bostrom.

Why this one

This report marks the first time a company claims to offer genetic optimization for intelligence, moving Nick Bostrom's theoretical concept into a commercial offering.
