The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Can human eyes be modified to make us see/sense wavelengths beyond the visible spectrum?
That's fascinating! Could you tell me more about how genetic engineering could be used to modify the human eye for this purpose?
Sure. One approach could be to introduce genes encoding proteins that are sensitive to different wavelengths of light. This could allow the human eye to detect and perceive a wider range of electromagnetic radiation, beyond the visible spectrum. Additionally, genetic engineering could potentially be used to tailor the sensitivity of the eye to specific wavelengths of light, giving us enhanced vision capabilities in certain ranges.
