As long as we are all Hugh, instead of Locutus, I'm good with that. Being a human/machine hybrid could have some rather drastic advantages without necessarily giving up your humanity or individualism.
Despite the erotic adventure carrier wave, that is the pretext of my fourth book, "Reaction!"
Once androids are advanced enough to simulate humans, and nanotechnology is developed to the point of cellular repair or assembly, nothing is impossible.
Another point of my book is that this is a mixed blessing.
