Back in December, I and my Agora colleagues were asked to make predictions for 2014. I thought about that a lot. I wanted it to be something big, but not too well-known. Something that's been quietly happening behind the scenes, with the potential to break through to the mainstream consciousness this year. It needed, in other words, to be the leading edge of a fat-tail event.
I decided my prediction would be about human gene editing, a technology I think will eventually change everything.
