THE FOURTH GREAT TRANSFORMATION

Creating a new human species with AI and genetic engineering

A new human species will soon come to co-exist with us. This new species, ‘nouveau sapiens’, will be created using artificial intelligence and genetic engineering, both important tools which are in their infancy. Not only are the science and technology relatively new, but also their implications in the mind of the general public are only just beginning to enter our collective consciousness.

Written by a medical professional and independent consultant to healthcare IT companies, this book explores the questions of what this new species will look like, how we as humans will get along with them, and the potential threats and opportunities that will come along with genetically modified humans.
