Not the planet nor even the human species is at risk. Just our current level of civilization.

If the mutation isn't cancerous it would probably be fine since those reproductive don't really do anything for the parent. If it is a cancerous mutation the problem is it will tend to spread to the rest of the body.

Reply to comment by WeirdGamerAidan in ELI5: Why do computers need GPUs (integrated or external)? What information is the CPU sending to the GPU that it can't just send to a display? by WeirdGamerAidan
It's the second. The GPU takes all the information for the scene (the location/size/rotation) of objects in the scene and then calculates what color each pixel the screen can display. That calculation needs to be done millions of time per second but it's a very simple calculation so the GPU is suited for the task because it has a huge number of weak cores. Whereas a cpu has a small number of incredibly powerful cores.
