- | I will build a public database of Men, with sequenced DNA data and algorithms that translate this information in a selection of ‘qualities and possibilities’ and collects and displays them in a catalogue for possible buyers. | ||
- | The DNA of every man in this database is sequenced. Their inner (emotional, cognitive) and outer (fysionomy) qualities are described and can be isolated from the sequence. It's just a CRISPR-cas9 away to combine them into your ideal baby! The more sperm data is available, the more possibilities for the perfect match. | ||
