You realize the movie was 30 years ago right? What do you think was emerging then? A ton of stuff that is established now like GMOs, MRI, CRISPR, and indeed vaccines like mRNA.

How can you look at a 1996 movie about the existential danger of technology and believe it only applies to tech after 2022?

You can move the goalposts all you like, but you just completely fumbled when saying people had no literacy, and it's making you appear as though English is not your first language. I mean, I literally pointed out genetic engineering - you referencing GMO's and CRISPR as if those are things I am ignoring is pretty stupid on your part! At most generous, it's illiterate on your part.

The book is about emergent tech. It's less about "tech that caused humanity to survive until this point".

You could say it is about mRNA vaccines but those went through such enormous caution in development and testing that Crichton would surely say that they heeded his caution when working with them.
