AI and Bionic Eyes Are Helping to Contain Raging Wildfires
Posted by Genevieve Klien in categories: cyborgs, robotics/AI, transhumanism
Only these eyes aren’t human. They don’t blink or take breaks, and guided by artificial intelligence they can tell the difference between a dust cloud, an insect swarm and a plume of smoke that demands quick attention. In Brazil, the devices help keep mining giant Vale SA working, and protect trees for pulp and paper producer Suzano SA.

The Abortion Debate Is Stuck. Are Artificial Wombs the Answer?
Posted by Zoltan Istvan in categories: biotech/medical, transhumanism
I’m excited to share my new Op-Ed for The New York Times on the pro-life versus pro-choice debate of the artificial womb. Could this change the abortion divide forever? Conservatives may need to step up and embrace ectogenesis. Liberals should let them. The transhumanism tech will be here in a few years.
The technology would allow fetuses to develop outside the female womb so women would no longer have be pregnant.

The truth about Jeffrey Epstein and his fascination with transhumanism
Posted by Zoltan Istvan in categories: biotech/medical, geopolitics, sex, transhumanism
A solid clarification article in a major newspaper where I point out that the transhumanism movement is vastly different than how Epstein interpreted in in 2011. Transhumanists need to speak up about what their vision of transhumanism is so others and media know what it really is about.
The revelation that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein planned to impregnate 20 women with his sperm in a “DNA seeding” centre left the world feeling sick. But for patrons of a small, but growing, political movement it caused utter chaos.
“This is the largest media coverage we have ever experienced,” says Zoltan Istvan, former presidential candidate and founder of the Transhumanist Party. “But this is the worst type of coverage. Lots of damage control is being done right now.”

Jeffrey Epstein, a Narcissistic Transhumanist
Posted by Joseph Barney in category: transhumanism
https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/jeffrey-epstein-a-narc…shumanist/ the author of the article is a dummy and a hypocrite. By his criteria, then God and Jesus and all Christians, Jews and Muslims as well as pretty much all the world’s religions are narcissists etc., Because every world religion I can remember believes in an eternal afterlife.
Jeffrey Epstein’s deep dive into transhumanism.

Amputee can feel objects again with prosthetic arm inspired by Luke Skywalker
Posted by Paul Battista in categories: biotech/medical, cyborgs, engineering, robotics/AI, transhumanism, weapons
About 17 years ago, Keven Walgamott lost his left hand and part of his forearm in an electrical accident. Now, Walgamott can use his thoughts to tell the fingers of his bionic hand to pick up eggs and grapes. The prosthetic arm he tested also allowed Walgamott to feel the objects he grasped.
A biomedical engineering team at the University of Utah created the “LUKE Arm,” named in honor of the robotic hand Luke Skywalker obtains in “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” after Darth Vader slices off his hand with a lightsaber.
A new study published Wednesday in the journal Science Robotics explained how the arm revived the sensation of touch for Walgamott. The University of Chicago and the Cleveland Clinic were also involved in the study.
