Can AI get advanced enough to find out ways to looksmax?

[CT03]

Like find a formula to grow taller proportionately or find a way to do get a better face

I think that CRISPR-gene editing will be a much bigger looksmax in the future than any AI could ever be.

What’s that

What’s that

It´s basically a gene cutting enzyme (endonuklease) derived from bacteria. In bacteria it is used to destroy viral RNA.
In humans on the other hand it can be used for genetic modification/designer babies.

VISUAL SENSORS SUGGEST PSL LEVEL UNSATISFACTORY.
WHAT IS YOUR HEIGHT LEVEL. QUESTION MARK.
SURPRISED GASP.
YOU ARE IDENTIFIED AS A "TRUE" INVOLUNTARY CELIBATE.
LOVE IS AN IRRATIONAL CONCEPT.
BUT YOUR LOOKS DEFINE PROBABILITY.
DO YOU KNOW ELLIOT RODGER. QUESTION MARK.

There are even more genes that affect facial structure and soft tissue than height (and height is controlled by more than 700 DNA sequences). I don't think humanity will ever get to the point where we can modify the children of ordinary people into 'superhumans'.

Even then, you can't just take one of those hundreds or thousands of genes, or even a dozen of them, then mod them and expect your child to look a certain way.
These genes all interact in very unpredictable ways with each other.

AI could be trained to learn what human females find attractive. You could feed it a large data set of men who got thousands of swipes from women, and men who got 5-10 or less. I believe we will get to that point, and that optimal point will be used by plastic surgeons to reconstruct ugly male faces.

But I don't believe we will ever be able to modify an ugly persons genes to make it possible for an ugly 5'2 man to have a handsome faced 6'4 son. There are so many tens of thousands of genes at play, which all must align perfectly. For example you cannot just copy the eye area genes of Sean o'Pry and latch it onto an ugly guy. It will look uncanny, disproportionate and weird in relation to the rest of the face.

That will be a far future. Not in this century probably. Adding desirable gene and identifying them in the first place is super hard and we don't know that yet.
