TL;DR:
Will there be something like Plasmids from the game 'Bioshock' or Compound V from the show "The Boys" that enhances human ability like them or at least close to doing that?
This question seeks to predict whether, by the end of the year 2050, a breakthrough in synthetic biology will lead to the creation of a living organism with abilities that exceed current biological limitations in a manner reminiscent of the superhuman capabilities portrayed by Plasmids from the game 'Bioshock' or Compound V from the show "The Boys".
Resolution to YES: The market resolves to YES if, by December 31, 2050, there is a verified and well-documented instance where synthetic biology has been used to create a living organism (human or otherwise) that exhibits abilities surpassing natural biological limits. Such abilities could include but are not limited to, enhanced physical strength, rapid healing, or extraordinary sensory perception that go well beyond the current scope of human or animal capabilities.
Resolution to NO: If no such breakthrough is reported by the specified date, or if reported advancements do not significantly surpass current biological capabilities, the market will resolve to NO.
Verification Sources: The event must be reported and confirmed by credible scientific publications or major news outlets, with validation from the scientific community.
Note:
I think there should be clearer criteria for these questions, but I couldn't quite think of one. Any suggestion for the criteria will be open for a while.
Here is the same question with the version EOY 2060:
