I recently saw a debate on Warski Live where they discussed DNA mapping and then making artificial intelligence that could perform the task of DNA manipulation. The argument was made that if we mapped DNA we could possibly change human reproduction and become reliant on technology to prolong and continue to reproduce.

But I think overusing this technology, like aiming to create flawless humans, is unacceptable. It will be then like drugs which are beneficial medically, but destructive when abused and excessively used for personal consumption.
