Promoted to curated: I think this topic is quite important and there has been very little writing that helps people get an overview over what is happening in the space, especially with some of the recent developments seeming quite substantial and I think being surprising to many people who have been forecasting much longer genetic engineering timelines when I’ve talked to them over the last few years.
I don’t think this post is the perfect overview. It’s more like a fine starting point and intro, and I think there is space for a more comprehensive overview, and I would curate that as well, but it’s the best I know of right now.

Thanks a lot for writing this!
