Transhumanism

What do humans need more than anything else? Some think it is intelligence. According to this thinking, there will come a point in history when scientific advances will reach critical mass, so to speak, and become unstoppable.

Then comes the "singularity," when transhumanists will be able to transform themselves into "post-humans."

"The transhumanist quest has two primary goals: radical life extension . . and the exponential increase of human intelligence (perhaps because it would better enable them to achieve the first goal)."
