Because this is how you get Planet of the Apes!

quote:

For the first time, a team of Chinese scientists made use of gene-editing techniques to make monkey brains more human-like. By the end, the monkeys, rhesus macaques, got smarter and had superior memories as compared to the unaltered monkeys.

Researchers edited the human version of a gene known as ‘MCPH1’ into the macaques. The gene made the monkeys’ brain develop along a more human-like timeline. The gene-hacked monkeys showed better reaction times and improved short-term memories in comparison to their unaltered peers, as per China Daily.

This is an insult Valerie Jarret.

She accomplished this years ago.

I think this is all just a test to see if they can get Maxine Waters up to 3rd grade intelligence.

Super monkeys will team with Terminators to plug us into the Matrix to run their eco-friendly machine-monkey cities.

That would require a complete transplant with Einsteins brain, and even then, it would be questionable.

This explains Zion Williamson. No human can move the way he does.
