Beyond human: exploring transhumanism

Beyond human: exploring transhumanism | ASU News: "According to Tirosh-Samuelson, transhumanists seek to transcend human biology through techno-genetic enhancements.

Essentially, it would be a new phase of human evolution driven by exponential technological growth. “Homo sapiens will give rise to Robo sapiens,” Tirosh-Samuelson says."
