Human enhancement

else we can do. Thus, driving them farther and farther into that desire for more power. Power, it is like a drug, addicting. Most average people strive to be at the top of the chain. When they get that power, they want more and more. It is in the human nature. They always will want more until they have it all and then it drives them to do things they wouldn’t have done otherwise. Power corrupts the soul when you cannot control your…

question the long-term side effects of what was once completely foreign concepts, now accepted, and ingrained into our everyday lives. The problem isn't just social media, but rather the long list of inventions and enhancements we have gradually adopted throughout the course of the human species. I do not believe these changes directly correlate to antisocial behavior, but I do strongly believe that it allows for a more antisocial friendly tomorrow. The well majority of my childhood, I grew up…

minds proves to be misleading, at least in the short term. Certainly the answer varies depending on the specifics of the technology employed, how it is employed, and by whom. Thus the following will conduct a brief survey of different analyses of human being’s relationship to the new technologies in their lives, giving a glimpse into the pro’s and con’s of such relations. Champeau notes that “for computer-savvy middle-aged and older adults, searching the Internet triggers key centers in the…

In Matthew liao’s paper, Parental love Pills: Some Ethical Considerations, he claims that the usage of pharmacologically-induced parental love can be morally unproblematic. In section one I will describe Matthew Liao’s claim and perspective. In section two I will present my objection to his claim and view. In section three I will provide a counter to my objection and argue against it. 1a: An ambiguity The claim that the usage of pharmacologically-induced parental love can be morally…

It is hard to imagine what daily life might look like today without the effort of engineers, philosophers, and innovators across the globe. Throughout the history of human existence, there have been many inventions for both pleasure and function. The improvements of processes and tools have been built on small, gradual enhancements, as Friedel would define as Capture (Friedel, 4). He went to further explain Capture as “not only recording techniques, but also includes the processes by which a…

babies would be born without any chance of carrying future illnesses and they would be an unblemished child?. The parents give their consent to the scientists to manipulate the genetics of the embryo. This is a gross violation of a child’s fundamental human right to lead a life whose basic form is not dictated while the child has still not found himself or herself in the mother’s womb. A designer baby is a genetic /scientific process whereby genetic fictionalization of the embryo is achieved…

a very astonishing, altering with other enhancements such as heightened intelligence, strength, and etc. just doesn't sound right to me. In my opinion, a child is a gift to the parents and it shouldn't be altered with. They should love it anyway or form it comes in. There is no such thing as a "perfect" child, it's unrealistic. "The greater danger of a belief in genetic engineering lies in its likely social impact. Eugenics, the science of improving a human population by controlled breeding to…

The development of softer more realistic and provide welfare advancement for the nonhuman primates in captivity is extremely important to enhance the primate welfare. This source gives examples of enhancing non-human primate living arrangement where they can voluntarily choose to socialize or participate in training. The journal states “Grooming-contact cages allow neighboring animals to have protected social contact through a common wall between their enclosures”…

Preservation of generalised limb structure with primitive pentadactyly. 2. Enhancement of free mobility of the digits, especially of the pollux and hallux (both used for grasping). 3. Replacement of sharp, compressed claws by flat nails; development of very sensitive tactile pads on the digits. 4. Progressive shortening of the snout…
