Hell, not OP, but I'd CRISPR myself to get rid of a pimple. Making myself smarter or healthier or stronger would be a no-brainer.

- chc 8y agoI think you're overlooking the implication that modifying your genes the way CRISPR does is never going to be risk-free. The question probably isn't "Would you get rid of a pimple if there were no other consequences?" but more like "Would you accept a 2% risk of slow, painful death to get rid of a pimple?"
