Science and technology are moving ahead so quickly, they seem to exceed our capacity for understanding and controlling them, sometimes. There are ethical considerations in all cases, and I think we're right to wonder whether we can be trusted to use the knowledge in the best interest of humankind. At the same time, the progress is inevitable, and I do think that the potential for good is so great. Not pressing forward because we are afraid of our own weaknesses is a poor reason for progress to slow.
Those are some of my initial thoughts....
