transhumanism
Transhumanism is a philosophical movement that advocates for the use of technology to enhance the human condition. This includes improving physical and mental abilities, extending lifespan, and even altering human biology through advancements in fields like genetics, robotics, and artificial intelligence. Transhumanists believe that these enhancements can lead to a better quality of life and greater human potential.
The movement raises ethical questions about the implications of such enhancements. Critics worry about issues like inequality, as access to these technologies may be limited to certain groups. Additionally, there are concerns about the loss of what it means to be human and the potential risks associated with altering our biology.
