Is it inevitable that people will want to upgrade themselves as technology progresses and possibilities open? If you lose an arm you will want a mechanical arm. A tech arm could be a lot better in terms of speed, agility, strength.
Or will you want to regrow body parts? New teeth grown for old, or a new human arm grown for an arm lost?
Which would you choose? Robot parts or regrown human parts? Which body parts will we never be able to replace? Will our future selves become more and more artificial? What is a ‘real human’ anyway?
Come and discuss your future selves and bring your friends!
