Some studies suggest genome editing in human embryos is ethically unacceptable and dangerous, while other studies highlight its potential to provide valuable insights and develop new treatments despite ethical concerns.
Genetic editing in human embryos, particularly through technologies like CRISPR-Cas9, has sparked significant ethical debates. These discussions revolve around the potential benefits of eradicating genetic diseases and the profound ethical implications of altering the human germline, which could affect future generations.

Comparative Ethical Analysis:
The ethical implications of genetic editing in human embryos are complex and multifaceted. Key concerns include the unpredictable effects on future generations, the moral status of embryos, and the distinction between therapeutic and non-therapeutic modifications. Public and legal scrutiny, parental rights, and the need for open debate and regulation are also critical factors. Overall, while the potential benefits of eradicating genetic diseases are significant, the ethical challenges necessitate careful consideration and robust regulatory frameworks.
