I dunno, I'm kinda into transhumanism, so long as I'm allowed to approach it on my own terms. Give me a cyborg arm, and mechanical eyes, I'm down. Hell, transform me into a cloud of nanomachines that can shift between larger physical forms, and I'll leap at the chance. Do I think it's likely to happen in my lifetime? No.
I dunno, I feel kind of strange that people treat this idea as if it's some new, separate thing; people have been using technology to change the way they live for as long as there have been people, but suddenly now we're thinking of applying it to ourselves (beyond, say, pacemakers and organ transplants and all the ways we already do that
) it's some weird, inhuman notion?
Naw.
