What Happens When AI and Gene Editing Come Together?

Two revolutionary technologies, machine learning and gene editing, are converging. This could transform how diseases are treated, how crops are grown, how wars are fought, and much more. RAND Europe research leader Sana Zakaria and RAND senior research engineer Timothy Marler join us to discuss this possible future—and the policy approaches needed to prepare for it.
