- Mtinie 4y agoCynically, I’m almost to the point where I could consider this outcome an acceptable risk if the benefits are large. The status quo today is an onslaught of (seemingly) random genomic and environmental impacts causing huge problems in human bodies. Treatments for these mutations may result in a lack of control of your arms or bowels…and don’t include a rollback feature. Now, in the super simplistic worldview of my comment it disregards all of the random mutations and illnesses we’d need to deal with in addition to the possibility of poorly written code being deployed to our hypothetical nano bot army…so it’s for sure not the only answer, and your point has definite merit.

- kragen 4y agoThis happens already without the code bugs, as you already know if you've done much elder care; nanomachines offer us the ability to fix it. The crucial question is whether we'll be allowed to.
