They make the left sound so much cooler than we really are.
Well when you can become a gender destroying cyborg just for not caring who uses what public bathroom, just like we do in our own homes, the sky becomes the limit for how cool you can be. Embrace it, you’re one cool cat.
I really want to live in the technologically-advanced, socialist utopia conservatives think mainstream Democrats are trying to produce
Yeah, didn’t think we were heading that direction, but now that they mention it…
Here’s a free cyber implant for you comrade. ⚙️
I know it opens doors we probably shouldn’t, but I’d have trouble declining a memory assistance implant.
I’d go total replacement if it ever becomes viable. Full gradual-brain-replacement and completely robotic body. Probably too far out for anyone alive today, but we can hope. After all, at that point it’s just a roundabout way to immortality.
The biggest issue is that memory isn’t stored in one location. There’s certain locations that index memories, but the memories themselves are all over the place. Even if we could replace an area of the brain with robotic components, it’s probably more efficient to promote neurogenesis and have damaged sections regrow. We might implant electrodes in the brain for additional functionality, but neurons are so efficient it’ll be a long time before we can improve upon them. Regrowing body parts will be preferable to replacing parts, and we’ll only add robotic components to augment biology.
I think we’ll see biology used in computers more than we’ll see artificial parts replace biology. Researchers already use neurons to act as nodes in neutral networks with promising results.
Agreed, but that depends on if we develop those biological modifications / replacement before artificial parts can do ‘good enough.’ I’d rather live in an OK robot or computer sim than die because the body couldn’t be replaced biologically. Although as you said, we won’t be improving on neurons anytime soon. But the rest can be replaced well enough to function.
Bring on the fully automated luxury gay space communism.
Engage!
Oh my, I have bad news about our warhammer future
Is it space Nazis? It’s space Nazis isn’t it…
It’s worse, they’re “the good guys”.
I didn’t care about people’s prefered genetelia before, but if we’re going full 40k I am all in.
when your unpaid intern finally has enough and replaces transsexual with transhuman in the ChatGPT prompt for your speech
Weird to think everyone with a pacemaker, insulin pump, or cochlear implant is trans but hey, I don’t make the rules.
Wait till you find out that almost no one has a gendered bathroom in their house, everyone is trans.
Where do i sign up for my new cyborg body?
Join the glorious evolution.
I play league :(i will join this glorious evolution
i also play league :(
People still play league nowadays? Oh shit i also play league…
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.
I craved the strength and certainty of steel.
I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.
Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you.
One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you.
But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal.This heresy will not stand!
