There are already start ups offering embryo genome reports to detect diseases and so on. As of today, can this technology be used to detect iq? How much time until we can do it? How much time until we can edit the iq of the embryo? How will humanity face that only rich people will now have superior offspring?

Give it a decade.
You can probably get this pretty accurate by training an AI doodad on 23&me dataset.
Currently, straight genetic testing can't even fully predict autism and tardation. A lot of noise and developmental stuff, at best genes are priming possibilities.
Not sure how close IQ would be connected to simple genetic profile, how much its like autism and highly complex genetically and developmentally.

No idea but a lot of the sequence which we call "junk DNA" is in fact a series of if-ands that modulate other gene expressions and such. It's going to take a while to figure that out.
