  • Dorothy Deasy Narrow vs. General Transhumanism

    Updated: 2011-07-31 22:13:05
    Transhumanism is not simply something that will happen in the future; it is a general byproduct of modernity. Thinking of transhumanism narrowly, only as a future state, jeopardizes the development of desirable ethics and societal changes.

  • Trailer for TechnoHorror Web Series “H+”

    Updated: 2011-07-31 22:13:05
    In Bryan Singer’s new web-ipsoded film “H+” , which looks pretty cool, nano-neural implants leave a majority of the planet open to a lethal computer virus or glitch or something. Of course this is as much of an argument against neural prostheses as an apocalyptic plague movie is against living in a human body, or an asteroid apocalypse film is against living on Earth. What it points to, once the hubbub dies down, is the need to ensure that there are prudent failsafes and firewalls built into all neural prostheses, something we are already doing with wireless pacemakers and biomonitors.

    Depressed Metabolism The Science of Personal Survival Skip to content Home About Authors What is cryonics Sitemap Teens Twenties 2011 Gathering The double standard about cryonics Posted on July 29, 2011 by Aschwin de Wolf One of the most predictable features of public debates about cryonics is that those arguing in favor of cryonics are held to more rigorous standards than those seeking conventional medical treatment . Advocates of cryonics do not just have to prove that cryonics will work , they are also supposed to solve problems like overpopulation and the presumed boredom arising from expended lifespans . To some , people who make cryonics arrangements have an inflated perception of their own importance and should just forgo such selfish attempts to extend their lives . The default
