Human, More Than Human: Considering Transhumanism, Intro: "“The future of human evolution isn’t biological”
That is the tagline for Robot Central. In a short sentence, it gets to the heart of our possible future on this planet. It implies that we will be able to transcend our biological selves and become something more. The “more” is what we are trying to track here. The transhuman community looks to a new age where we could quickly eradicate disease through nanotechnology, or augment our intelligence, or develop machines to the point where the only work we have to do is the work we want to do, or do innumerable things. The goal here is to be optimistic about these possibilities."
