As long as it's for research and stays HIPPA compliant I don't really have an issue with it. This would be a good use for AI but that's also kinda horrifying to think about. Having millions of unique human DNA samples to train your AI on would be worth something I presume.
If they used it to help people, yes. But they're going to charge for whatever they create.
