Episode 567 ÜBERMENSCH UBERMECH W/ MATTHEW JAMES BAILEY AND ZOLTAN ISTVAN

Transhumanist thinkers predict that human beings may eventually be able to transform themselves into beings with such greatly expanded abilities as to merit the label “posthuman.” The symbol for transhuman is H+ or “Enhanced Human.” As the future moves forward, we will find that machines can take on human forms that are uncharacteristically real. Once humans move beyond their repulsion to “lifelike machines” they reach a point of empathy. As our fears of man and technology diminish, we begin to see evolution steer toward transhumanism. The idea of uploading the brain into the body of a clone or an artificially enhanced child has been considered by science as one of our next steps in the evolutionary process. Tonight on Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with Transhumanist, Zoltan Istvan about ÜBERMENSCH UBERMECH.
