Abstract- Genetical modification has existed for centuries, tracing back to ancient practices of selecting better crops to cultivate or choosing stronger cattle as breeding stock. As technology advances, hybrid plants and animals have been developed, genetically modified crops have been planted. Public disquiet began to emerge that humans are disrupting the laws of nature by creating artificial species. These concerns intensified when gene-editing technologies began to be applied to the human body. Despite genetic modification’s overwhelming medical benefits, opposition arose due to concerns about unequal access. Fears that only the wealthy will be able to enhance their offspring have led to accusations that genetic modification is exacerbating social inequality. Providing humanity with a means to improve itself, genetic modification is undoubtedly an extremely valuable bioengineering tool. The changes it brings to the world are truly beneficial and meaningful. As with all powerful innovations, misuse can lead to adverse consequences. The risk necessitates in-depth evaluation and comprehensive legislation on each application. Making the technology affordable and accessible to the public would alleviate many of the unethical concerns on social inequality and societal separation. We must take responsibility to guide, monitor, and regulate the ethical application of genetic modification, rather than dismissing the unparalleled value of this transformative tool.
