That's quite a broad question

define transhumanism

^

Transhumanism? More like autism

So broad

detriment, b/c it will become a slippery slope to losing our humanity

Are heart monitors transhumanist?

Are fitwatches transhumanist

Transhumanism as in things like genetic engineering, advanced prosthetics, nanomachines, etc

Hmmmmmmmmm

well it could be both

depends how we use it

Am I a cyborg if I have dental fillings?

It's still too broad

^

Detriment, it is likely to cause us to be too uniform in design and expose us to unintended consequences like a disease that exploits the generic modification

Like it's up to the individual that decides how they're going to use their "transhumanism"

Can't really determine whether or not it's detrimental because it's just too broad.

In all seriousness, as with most technological advancements, it will change us, but probably for the better.

i'd usually say it's a detriment since it's more or less non-human, I feel like making a peak and perfect baby is not really human

humans have qualities, getting rid of them is questionable

@Deleted User Hey

Hey

i think machine-minds would entail loss of personal freedoms

You’re the one who raided those servers

We'll probably lose our sense of self at the expense of becoming the physically best versions of ourselves.

wdym lol

Like would you or would you not want to walk around with some metal that can morph into virtually anything of any realistic size?

Would you want your consciousness connected to the internet somehow?

if someone hacks into it i'm fucked

I feel like some people would abuse it too, like creating a child that looks like chad

I mean like, it sounds dope on paper,

and if it's treated right,

it can benefit everyone,

it could be abused in many ways if it is not properly done

but most things turn sour.

I don't think average people are willing to take that chance.
