Not really. Chimps won't evolve if they don't need to, and they certainly aren't needing it now. Humans won't truly begin the road to a new species because we aren't in a life-or-death scenario (Ignore global warming, don't won't to start a flame war). Handicapped people aren't dying off like if we were living in the wild, but don't take it like I'm supporting eugenics. Chimps aren't really evolving either, since poaching will kill any member of a species, regardless of their genes. Chimps aren't specialist creatures though, they could feasibly survive on the outskirts of a forest, and maybe take to the plains like we did.
