I-Biohacking superhumans: Ikusasa Le-Human Evolution P3

Sonke sisohambweni lwempilo yonke lokuzithuthukisa, ngokomoya, ngokwengqondo nangokomzimba. Ngeshwa, ingxenye 'yempilo yonke' yaleso sitatimende ingazwakala njengenqubo ende kakhulu kwabaningi, ikakhulukazi kulabo abazalelwa ezimeni ezinzima noma abanokukhubazeka ngokwengqondo noma ngokomzimba. 

Kodwa-ke, ngokusebenzisa intuthuko ethuthukayo ye-biotech ezoba yinsakavukela emashumini ambalwa eminyaka azayo, kuzokwazi ukuthi uzenze kabusha ngokushesha futhi ngokuyisisekelo.

Ukuthi ufuna ukuba ingxenye yomshini. Ukuthi ufuna ukuba namandla angaphezu kwavamile. Noma ngabe ufuna ukuba uhlobo olusha ngokuphelele lwabantu. Umzimba womuntu usuzoba uhlelo lokusebenza olukhulu olulandelayo abaduni bakusasa (noma ama-biohackers) abazolusebenzisa. Faka enye indlela, uhlelo lokusebenza olubulalayo lwakusasa kungaba amandla okubona amakhulu emibala emisha, ngokuphambene nomdlalo lapho ujikijela khona izinyoni ezithukuthele ezingulubeni ezinamakhanda amakhulu, ezintshontsha amaqanda.

Lokhu kuphumelela kwesayensi yezinto eziphilayo kuzomela amandla amasha ajulile, angakaze abonwe emlandweni.

Ezahlukweni ezedlule zochungechunge lwethu Lwekusasa Lokuguquguquka Komuntu, sihlole ukuthi ukuguqula izinkambiso zobuhle kanye nokuthambekela okungenakugwenywa kubantwana abaklami bezakhi zofuzo kuzobeka kanjani ikusasa lokuvela komuntu ezizukulwaneni ezizayo. Kulesi sahluko, sihlola amathuluzi azosivumela ukuthi silolonge kabusha imvelo yomuntu, noma okungenani, imizimba yethu, phakathi nokuphila kwethu.

Ukuhamba kancane kwemishini ngaphakathi emizimbeni yethu

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi abantu abahlala nama-pacemakers noma ama-cochlear implants ezithulu, abantu abaningi namuhla sebephila nemishini ngaphakathi kubo. Lezi zixhobo ngokuvamile ziyizigxivizo zezokwelapha eziklanyelwe ukulawula ukusebenza komzimba noma ukufakwa kwezitho ezilimele.

Ekuqaleni kuxoxwe ngayo esahlukweni sesine sethu Ikusasa Lempilo ochungechungeni, lezi zimila zezokwelapha zizothuthuka ngokushesha ngokwanele ukuze zithathele indawo ngokuphepha izitho eziyinkimbinkimbi njengenhliziyo nesibindi. Zizophinde zisabalele, ikakhulukazi uma izimila ezinosayizi we-pinky-toe ziqala ukuqapha impilo yakho, zabelane ngedatha ngokungenantambo nohlelo lwakho lokusebenza lwezempilo, ngisho ukuvimbela izifo eziningi uma itholakele. Futhi ngasekupheleni kwawo-2030, sizobe sesinebutho lama-nanobots elibhukuda emithanjeni yethu yegazi, liphulukisa ukulimala futhi libulale noma yiliphi igciwane elithelelanayo noma amagciwane abawatholayo.

Nakuba lobu buchwepheshe bezokwelapha buzokwenza izimanga ekwandiseni nasekuthuthukiseni izimpilo zabagulayo nabalimele, bazothola nabasebenzisi phakathi kwabanempilo.

AmaCyborgs phakathi kwethu

Ushintsho ekwamukeleni kwethu umshini phezu kwenyama luzoqala kancane kancane uma izitho zokwenziwa seziphakeme kunezitho zebhayoloji. I-godsend yalabo abadinga ukushintshwa kwesitho esiphuthumayo, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi lezi zitho zizovusa intshisekelo yama-biohackers ahlakaniphile.

Ngokwesibonelo, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi sizoqala ukubona idlanzana likhetha ukushintsha inhliziyo yalo enempilo, elinikezwe uNkulunkulu, libe nenhliziyo yokwenziwa ephakeme. Nakuba lokho kungase kuzwakale kweqisa kwabaningi, la ma-cyborgs akusasa azojabulela ukuphila okungenaso isifo senhliziyo, kanye nesimiso senhliziyo esithuthukisiwe, njengoba le nhliziyo entsha ingase ikwazi ukumpompa igazi ngokuphumelelayo isikhathi eside, ngaphandle kokukhathala.

Ngokufanayo, kuzoba nalabo abakhetha 'ukuthuthukela' esibindini sokwenziwa. Lokhu ngokwethiyori kungavumela abantu ngabanye amandla okuphatha ngokuqondile i-metabolism yabo, ingasaphathwa eyokubenza bamelane kakhulu nobuthi abasetshenziswayo.

Ngokuvamile, umshini wakusasa ocatshangelwe kakhulu uzoba nekhono lokushintsha cishe noma yisiphi isitho futhi ikakhulukazi noma yisiphi isitho ngokufaka okunye esikhundleni sokwenziwa. Lawa ma-prosthetics azoba namandla, akwazi ukumelana nomonakalo, futhi azosebenza kalula nje jikelele. Sesikushilo lokho, i-subculture encane kuphela ezokhetha ngokuzithandela ukushintshwa okubanzi, okuwumshini, kwezingxenye zomzimba, ikakhulukazi ngenxa yokungavumelani komphakathi kwesikhathi esizayo mayelana nalo mkhuba.

Leli phuzu lokugcina alisho ukuthi izimila zizogwenywa umphakathi ngokuphelele. Eqinisweni, emashumini eminyaka ezayo sizobona uhla lwezinto ezifakelwayo ezicashile ziqala ukubona ukutholwa okujwayelekile (ngaphandle kokusiguqula sonke sibe ama-Robocops). 

Ubuchopho obuthuthukisiwe vs hybrid

Okushiwo esahlukweni esandulele, abazali bakusasa bazosebenzisa i-genetic engineering ukuze bakhulise amandla obuhlakani bezingane zabo. Emashumini amaningi eminyaka, mhlawumbe ikhulu, lokhu kuzoholela esizukulwaneni sabantu esithuthuke kakhulu ngokwengqondo kunezizukulwane ezandulele. Kodwa kungani ulinda?

Kakade sibona i-subculture ivela emhlabeni othuthukile wabantu abazama ama-nootropics—izidakamizwa ezithuthukisa ikhono lokucabanga. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhetha isitaki se-nootropic esilula njenge-caffeine ne-L-theanine (ifav yami) noma okuthile okuthuthuke kakhulu njenge-piracetam ne-choline combo noma izidakamizwa ze-prescription ezifana ne-Modafinil, i-Adderall ne-Ritalin, konke lokhu kukhiqiza amazinga ahlukahlukene okugxilisa ingqondo kanye nokukhumbula inkumbulo. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, izidakamizwa ezintsha ze-nootropic zizofika emakethe ngemiphumela enamandla kakhulu yokuthuthukisa ubuchopho.

Kodwa kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ubuchopho bethu buthuthuke kangakanani ngokusebenzisa ubunjiniyela bezakhi zofuzo noma i-nootropic supplementation, ngeke neze bafane namandla obuchopho bengqondo ehlanganisiwe. 

Kanye nokufakelwa kokulandela ngomkhondo kwezempilo okuchazwe ngaphambilini, okunye ukufakelwa kwe-elekthronikhi ukuze ubone ukutholwa okujwayelekile kuzoba i-RFID encane ehlelwa kabusha efakwe ngaphakathi esandleni sakho. Ukuhlinzwa kuzoba lula futhi kuvame njengokubhobozwa indlebe yakho. Okubaluleke nakakhulu, sizosebenzisa lawa maships ngezindlela ezihlukahlukene; cabanga uphakamisa isandla sakho ukuze uvule iminyango noma udlule izindawo zokuhlola ezokuphepha, uvule ifoni yakho noma ufinyelele ikhompuyutha yakho evikelekile, ukhokhe lapho usukhokha, uvule imoto yakho. Ngeke kusabakhohlwa okhiye, ukuphatha isikhwama semali noma ukukhumbula amagama ayimfihlo.

Ukufakelwa okunjalo kuzokwenza kancane kancane umphakathi ukhululeke kakhudlwana ngogesi osebenza ngaphakathi kwakho. Futhi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, lokhu kududuza kuzothuthukela kubantu abahlanganisa amakhompiyutha ngaphakathi kobuchopho babo. Kungase kuzwakale kukude manje, kodwa cabangela iqiniso lokuthi i-smartphone yakho ayivamile ukuba ngaphezu kwamamitha ambalwa ukusuka kuwe nganoma yisiphi isikhathi. Ukufaka i-supercomputer ngaphakathi kwekhanda lakho kuyindawo elula kakhulu yokuyibeka.

Ukuthi le hybrid yomshini wobuchopho ivela ekufakweni noma ngebutho lama-nanobots abhukuda ebuchosheni bakho, umphumela uzofana: ingqondo enikwe amandla i-inthanethi. Abantu abanjalo bazokwazi ukuxuba intuition yomuntu namandla okucubungula ewebhu, okufana nokuba nenjini yokusesha ye-Google ngaphakathi kwengqondo yakho. Khona maduzane ngemva kwalokho, lapho zonke lezi zingqondo zixhumana zodwa ku-inthanethi, sizobona ukuvela komqondo we-hive global kanye ne-metaverse, itimu echazwe ngokugcwele isahluko sesishiyagalolunye bakithi Ikusasa le-inthanethi chungechunge.

Uma kubhekwa konke lokhu, kuphakama imibuzo mayelana nokuthi iplanethi egcwele izihlakaniphi kuphela ingasebenza ... kodwa sizoyihlola esihlokweni esizayo.

Ama-superhumans akhiwe ngofuzo

Kubantu abaningi, ukuba i-half man, i-half-machine cyborgs akusona isithombe esingokwemvelo abantu abasiqambayo lapho becabanga ngegama elithi superhuman. Kunalokho, sibona ngeso lengqondo abantu benamandla afana nalawa esiwafunda ezincwadini zethu zamahlaya zobuntwana, amandla anjengejubane elikhulu, amandla amakhulu, izinzwa ezinkulu.

Nakuba kancane kancane sizofaka lezi zici ezizukulwaneni ezizayo zezingane eziklami, isidingo salawa mandla namuhla siphezulu ngendlela esizoba ngayo esikhathini esizayo. Ngokwesibonelo, ake sibheke ezemidlalo ezikhokhelwayo.

Izidakamizwa ezithuthukisa ukusebenza (ama-PED) zigcwele cishe kuwo wonke amaligi amakhulu ezemidlalo. Zisetshenziselwa ukukhiqiza ukushwiba okunamandla ku-baseball, ukugijima ngokushesha emgqeni, ukubekezelela isikhathi eside ekugibeleni ibhayisikili, ukushaya kakhulu ebholeni laseMelika. Phakathi, asetshenziselwa ukululama ngokushesha ekuzivocavoca nasekuzilolongeni, futhi ikakhulukazi ekulimaleni. Njengoba amashumi eminyaka eqhubeka, ama-PED azothathelwa indawo i-doping yofuzo lapho kusetshenziswa ukwelapha ngezakhi zofuzo ukuhlela kabusha ukwakheka kofuzo komzimba wakho ukuze kunikezwe izinzuzo zama-PED ngaphandle kwamakhemikhali.

Udaba lwama-PED kwezemidlalo sekungamashumi eminyaka lukhona futhi luzoba lubi kakhulu ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Izidakamizwa zesikhathi esizayo kanye nokwelapha ngofuzo kuzokwenza ukuthuthukiswa kokusebenza kusondele kungabonakali. Futhi lapho abantwana abaklami sebekhulile sebekhule ngokugcwele, abasubathi abadala abakhulu, bayovunyelwa ngisho nokuqhudelana nabasubathi abazalwa ngokwemvelo?

Izinzwa ezithuthukisiwe zivula imihlaba emisha

Njengabantu, akuyona into esivame ukucabanga ngayo (uma kwenzeka), kodwa empeleni, umhlaba ucebe kakhulu kunalokho esingakucabanga. Ukuze uqonde ngempela ukuthi ngiqonde ukuthini ngalokho, ngifuna ugxile kulelo gama lokugcina: bona.

Cabanga ngalokhu ngale ndlela: Ubuchopho bethu busisiza ukuba siqonde izwe elisizungezile. Futhi akwenzi lokhu ngokuntanta ngaphezu kwamakhanda ethu, siqalaze, futhi asilawule ngesilawuli se-Xbox; ikwenza lokhu ngokuvaleleka ngaphakathi kwebhokisi (ama-noggins ethu) futhi icubungule noma yiluphi ulwazi olunikezwa ezithweni zethu zezinzwa—amehlo ethu, ikhala, izindlebe, njll.

Kodwa njengoba izithulu noma izimpumputhe ziphila izimpilo ezincane kakhulu uma ziqhathaniswa nabantu abanamandla, ngenxa yemikhawulo yokukhubazeka kwabo kubeka endleleni abangawubona ngayo umhlaba, kungashiwo okufanayo kubo bonke abantu ngenxa yokulinganiselwa kwethu. isethi eyisisekelo yezitho zezinzwa.

Cabanga ngalokhu: Amehlo ethu abona amaza okukhanya angaphansi kwengxenye yezigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyishumi. Asikwazi ukubona imisebe ye-gamma. Asikwazi ukubona ama-x-ray. Asikwazi ukubona ukukhanya kwe-ultraviolet. Futhi ungangiqalisi nge-infrared, ama-microwaves, namaza omsakazo! 

Konke ukudlala eceleni, cabanga ukuthi impilo yakho izoba njani, ubungawubona kanjani umhlaba, uma ubungabona okungaphezu kokukhanya okuncane amehlo akho akuvumelayo njengamanje. Ngokufanayo, cabanga ukuthi ubungawubona kanjani umhlaba ukube inzwa yakho yokuhogela ingalingana neyenja noma inzwa yakho yokuzwa ilingana neyendlovu.

Njengabantu, empeleni sibona umhlaba ngembobo yokubuka. Kodwa ngezinqubo zesikhathi esizayo zobunjiniyela bezakhi zofuzo, ngolunye usuku abantu bayoba nokukhetha ukubona ngefasitela elikhulu. Futhi ngokwenza kanjalo, wethu umwelt izokhula (ahem, izwi losuku). Abanye abantu bazokhetha ukukhulisa izinzwa zabo zokuzwa, ukubona, ukuhogela, ukuthinta, kanye/noma ukunambitha—ingasaphathwa-ke. imizwa emincane eyisishiyagalolunye kuya kwamashumi amabili sivame ukukhohlwa—ngomzamo wokwandisa indlela ababona ngayo izwe elibazungezile.

Sesikushilo lokho, masingakhohlwa ukuthi emvelweni kunezinzwa eziningi kakhulu kunezabantu abaziwa kabanzi. Isibonelo, amalulwane asebenzisa i-echolocation ukuze abone umhlaba owazungezile, izinyoni eziningi zinezibuthe ezivumela ukuthi zibheke emkhakheni kazibuthe woMhlaba, kanti i-Black Ghost Knifefish inama-electroreceptors avumela ukuthi zithole izinguquko zikagesi ezizungezile. Noma iyiphi yalezi zinzwa ngokwethiyori ingase yengezwe emzimbeni womuntu ngokwebhayoloji (ngobunjiniyela bezakhi zofuzo) noma ngokobuchwepheshe (ngokusebenzisa izimila ze-neuroprosthetic) futhi Ucwaningo lubonisiwe ukuthi ubuchopho bethu buzojwayela ngokushesha futhi buhlanganise lezi zinzwa ezintsha noma eziphakeme ekuboneni kwethu kwansuku zonke.

Sekukonke, lezi zinzwa ezithuthukisiwe ngeke nje zinikeze abamukeli bazo amandla ayingqayizivele kodwa futhi nokuqonda okuyingqayizivele ngezwe elibazungezile okwakungakaze kwenzeke ngaphambili emlandweni wesintu. Kodwa kulaba bantu, bazoqhubeka kanjani nokuxhumana nomphakathi futhi umphakathi uzosebenzisana kanjani nabo? Ingabe ikusasa ama-sensoryglots ukuphatha abantu bendabuko ngendlela efanayo abantu abakhubazekile abaphatha ngayo abantu abakhubazekile namuhla?

Iminyaka ye-transhuman

Kungenzeka ukuthi uke wezwa igama elisetshenziswe kanye noma kabili phakathi kwesethi yabangane bakho: I-Transhumanism, umnyakazo wokuhambisa isintu phambili ngokusebenzisa ukusetshenziswa kwamakhono aphakeme ngokomzimba, engqondo, nangokwengqondo. Ngokufanayo, i-transhuman yinoma ubani owamukela okukodwa noma ngaphezulu kwezithuthukisi ezingokomzimba nezingokwengqondo ezichazwe ngenhla. 

Njengoba sesichazile, lolu shintsho olukhulu luzoba kancane kancane:

• (2025-2030) Okokuqala ngokusebenzisa ekugcineni okujwayelekile okujwayelekile kwezimila kanye nama-PED omqondo nomzimba.
• (2035-2040) Bese sizobona kwethulwa ubuchwepheshe bezingane bomklami, okokuqala ukuvimbela izingane zethu ukuthi zizalwe zinezimo ezisongela ukuphila noma eziqeda amandla, bese kamuva siqinisekisa ukuthi izingane zethu zijabulela zonke izinzuzo eziza nezakhi zofuzo eziphezulu.
• (2040-2045) Ngaso leso sikhathi, ama-niche subcultures azokwakhiwa eduze kokwamukelwa kwezinzwa ezithuthukisiwe, kanye nokwengezwa kwenyama ngomshini.
• (2050-2055) Ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, lapho sesifunde isayensi ngemuva ubuchopho-computer interface (BCI), sonke isintu sizokwenza baqale ukuxhuma izingqondo zabo emhlabeni jikelele I-Metaverse, njenge-Matrix kodwa hhayi njengobubi.
• (2150-2200) Futhi ekugcineni, zonke lezi zigaba zizoholela esimweni sokugcina somuntu sokuziphendukela kwemvelo.

Lokhu kushintsha esimweni somuntu, lokhu kuhlangana komuntu nomshini, ekugcineni kuzovumela abantu ukuba banqobe isimo sabo somzimba namandla abo obuhlakani. Indlela esisebenzisa ngayo lobu buciko izoncika kakhulu ezinkambisweni zomphakathi ezikhuthazwa amasiko esikhathi esizayo nezinkolo ze-techno. Nokho, indaba yokuziphendukela kwesintu isekude ukuphela.
