Thanks for your input
I came up with the following code and it seems to work as well:

add_filter( 'get_the_author_genesis_author_box_single', 'thx_get_the_author_genesis_author_box_single', 10, 2 );
function thx_get_the_author_genesis_author_box_single( $value, $user_id ) {
	
	$field = get_the_author_meta( 'description', $user_id );
	
	if ($field)
		return true;
}
