THE SYNTHETIC DEVOLUTION: Essays on the Radical Synthetic Redesign of Human Society and the Natural World
Radical transhuman and transnatural technologies are now dominating everyday society and geopolitics, capturing a new generation.
Dizzying private investment capital and public investment via governments looking to dominate the new technologies, are fueling the blaze.
Meanwhile, any sense of what is being lost in this Artificial Ascendance, is dimly understood by many, at best. Humankind is in danger of losing itself, and destroying the natural world.
This "progress," of course, is fundamentally unmoored from true advancement of either the natural world, or natural humanity. These essays and forecasts, based on many streams of information and events, argue that our technology is outmoding us.
And more than that. If we continue down the road of unbound pursuit of genetic redesigns, Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) and other technologies, natural humans and the natural world will not survive.
The future will be an alien one indeed. And the irony will be that the aliens came not from some distant planet, but from the depths of our own god-questing hubris.
