Can we use genetic engineering to create superhumans?

The idea of creating superhumans through genetic engineering is a topic that has been widely debated and discussed in science fiction for decades. While it is true that genetic engineering has the potential to alter certain traits in humans, the concept of creating superhumans is still very much a work of fiction.

One reason for this is that there is still much we do not know about the human genome and how genes interact with each other. While scientists have identified certain genes that are responsible for certain traits and disorders, the complexity of the human genome means that we are still far from being able to engineer a 'superhuman'.

Additionally, the ethics of genetic engineering are still under debate. Even if it were possible to create a genetically modified human with certain desirable traits, such as intelligence or physical strength, it raises questions about the potential consequences and whether it would be fair or ethical to do so.

It is important to remember that while genetic engineering has the potential to bring about many benefits, such as treating genetic disorders or improving agricultural crops, the concept of creating superhumans is still very much in the realm of science fiction.
