Heheh. Right.

That said, you can see that we are already becoming cyborgs. People with telephones attached to their ears and iphones glued to their hands.

Just wait until HoloLens and Oculus Rift are released. People will never leave their dens except to go to the grocery store.

Bruce Sterling did some interesting science fiction work, imagining that a "post-human" future takes two philosophical paths. On the one hand, there are Mechanists who end up with artificial eyes and limbs and who use prosthetics to live longer and be better. On the other hand, there are Shapers who use genetic technology to eliminate disease and aging and maximize the body's inherent potential.

Of course, a combination of the two may be the most realistic path forward. But for Sterling, it became almost a religious war between the Mechanists and the Shapers are to who was an abomination and who were the rightful heirs to the old human societies.
