Radical science and technology are changing everything around us. The area of transhumanism is growing dramatically in size and impact - and the impact on our species is enormous. In just a decade, many things can change how we live our lives. The upcoming innovation will be amazing. Transhumanists believe that we must protect ourselves from our natural genes, unless they bind us to remain forever as animals. We believe that our outdated instincts can easily tempt us to know right from wrong, practical from impractical. If you look closely, the human body and its biology constantly highlights our many imperfections. Transhumanism seeks to improve the human body through science and technology - that is, to help people develop. This is a strange cultural and philosophical position for a movement. And yet, change is exactly what transhumanism aspires to.

Are you ready for the future?
We know that driverless test cars are on the road, and how doctors in France are replacing people's hearts with permanent robotic ones. Some researchers investigate already a billion-dollar market for brainwave readers/brain wave reading headsets. Using electroencephalography (EEG) sensors that pick up and monitor brain activity, NeuroSky’s MindWave (2018) can attach to Google Glass and allow you to take a picture and post it to Facebook and Twitter just by thinking about it. With other headsets, you can play video games on your iPhone with your thoughts. In fact, more than a year ago, the first mind-to-mind communication took place. An Indian researcher projected a thought to a colleague in France and they got along with their headsets. They understand each other, trough to headsets. That mean is, telepathy became reality from science fiction.
The history of transhumanism—the burgeoning field of science and radical tech used to describe robotic implants, prosthetics, and cyborg-like enhancements in the human being and its experience—has come a long way since scientists began throwing around the term a half century ago.
The thriving pro-cyborg medical industry is setting the stage for trillion-dollar markets that will remake the human experience. Furthermore, this industry is continuously developing. For the last couple of decades, researches show that five million people in America suffer from Alzheimer’s (Moore, 2015), but a new surgery that involves installing brain implants is showing promise in restoring people’s memory and improving lives. The use of medical and microchip implants, whether in the brain or not, are expected to surge in the coming years. Some experts surmise as many as half of Americans will have implants by 2020. I already have one in my hand (Istvan, 2015A). Moreover, as the world becomes more technologically orientated, fewer people will want to carry around purses and wallets, when all this info can be contained in a microchip the size of a grain of rice that can be implanted in a person’s hand. As a result, we can talk about that within a decade, half of humans will have microchip implants in them.
