With DNA editing we can improve the way our bodies function. With robotic enhancements, we will be able to do things no human can do. Where will all these new powers take us?
Is it possible to be perfect? Or will there always be trade-offs? Should some enhancements be against the law? Who will decide for the children?
Will humanity split into different species? The rich will be enhanced and the poor will remain normal perhaps? Will we see eugenics wars?
Join us in GeekSpeak at noon SLT on Saturday to explore what it will mean to be more than human. Bring all your humans. And robots are welcome.
IM Vulcan Viper, who teaches a meditation class every Wednesday in the GeekSpeak auditorium, if you have ideas for new subjects.
