futurism - 2: a lot of forever

With all the scientific breakthroughs in gene editing and stem cell research looming around the corner, it is evident that, in the not so distant future, we will be able to reverse aging. In essence, to stop dying.

On the other hand, fascinating advancements in bionics and brain chip technology are showing us the way to human machine integration.

It becomes clear that soon, if all these technologies are realized, we will cease to be human. If we don't age, don't sleep, don't eat, don't breed, then we cease to be human.

But do we want to become so bionic, so mechanical, so integrated? Or do we want to live forever in biological tissue; to continue to feel forever?
