This book presents a thought-provoking exploration of the potential future of human evolution, focusing on the implications of advanced biotechnologies and artificial intelligence. The author argues that these technologies might lead to the emergence of posthuman beings—entities vastly more intelligent and possibly immortal compared to current humans. The narrative delves into the ethical, philosophical, and societal impacts of such a transformation, questioning whether this evolution would signify the end of humanity as we know it or the beginning of a new, unimaginable phase of existence. Through a careful examination of the potential benefits and risks, the book challenges readers to consider the value of human qualities and the essence of what it means to be human in a rapidly changing world.
