Transhumanism: Biological and Epistemological Implications (original) (raw)

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017

Abstract

Beings, over the years, have managed to transcend their physical limitations through genetic changes developed by the interaction with the environment that surrounds them. Similarly, experience allows the human being to interpret the results of their actions and develop future action plans aimed at satisfying their goals. With the advantage of technology the human being is able to overcome its natural limitations and to develop these plans in a more efficient way. These technologies adapt to the environment and transform it, in order to establish new experiences that, at the same time, will give rise to new action plans derived from the new relationship with the modified environment. The question to solve is whereas the advancement of technology could lead to the absolute development of beings, so that completely eliminates their limitations imposed by their environment through advances in the latter or in beings themselves.
