We are living in a time when volumes of DNA research are shared among global communities so that even geneticists are racing to keep up. Not to be outdone, researchers are performing in the same glow with AI, machine and neuro-deep learning. Theories and models - it's hard to tell which comes first anymore. Very little is exact, very little perfect but steps forward are better than forever accepting heritable diseases. There is one problem. All of the managed data relative to electronic health records, treatments, clinical environments, pharma, insurers - in totality – must travel across the internet or private cloud networks. More and more private data is shared and therefore hardly private. The sad state of privacy and security is no longer debatable. The technology giants of artificial intelligence, genetics, precision medicine, space exploration and so many firms holding innovative tools of progress; no, not even their businesses can prosper and maintain integrity on crime-ridden global networks.
The way forward, the technology prophets may conclude, is to design one all-AI managed backbone network with no human interference, no public access, no internet peering - and only for the richest tech firms. The code of life will be their code of power - DNA from people transcribed via predictive softwares into social and economic values. Information trust will be operational, algorithmic, machine learned. Here is where the prophetic backbone arises. Its model will be our central nervous system. DNA is everywhere.
