> This iterative improvement by AI rating of genomes could be sped up by creating sperm and ova directly from embryo stem cells. This way we don't need to wait for a generation to pass to have the kids become parents. You don't need to create sperm or ova to create a genome. That's adding layers of indirection. Bostrom/Sandberg should study biology instead of handwaving like that. It's much faster to forego some of those steps completely. They are so busy being excited about "you don't need to wait an entire generation" that they don't realize "you don't need a sperm nor ova to rate a genome".
