  • It really seems like an inevitability at this point. The quantity with which we currently merge with our technology is staggeringly high. Even your cell phone is an extension of your body, specifically voice and memory enhancement. At the first opportunity we will integrate with these ideas fully so we don't have to carry these extra "body parts" around.

  • In 100 years everyone will be an Extropian. Not everyone will necessarily be a transhuman or posthuman, but the idea of humans merging with technology will be as obvious and unremarkable as humans flying in machines is today.
