 Breaking limitations  Morphological freedom  Next step in human evolution  “Posthuman”  Precursors  Prosthetics  Modern medicine ▪ Artificial organs ▪ Pacemaker

 Robotic/Synthetic limbs and organs  Stronger social integration  Reduction/Elimination of aging and disease  Neural and visual implants  Augmented reality/HUD

The disabled pay hundreds, even thousands to overcome their disability Today's prosthetic limbs cost between $5,000 to $8,000 while today's transhuman prosthetic limbs can cost over $20,000 Parts wear and tear

Transhumans may view normal humans as inferior Repetition of Nazi Germany and the Master Race In the wrong hands, the technology may lead to global catastrophe

The elimination of disease leads to less deaths, but more people China already experiences overpopulation

Replacing limbs and organs with machinery and robotics, and utilizing nanotechnology to eliminate disease When does a human stop being a human?

 Utilitarianism: Would a technologically-based ascension of the human species as a whole bring about more happiness than despair?  Virtue Ethics: Would the pursuit of what transhumanism promises be considered virtuous?  Benevolence  Generosity
