Excellent rhetorical points and truly - I fit the direction.
I’ve thought so much about the cyborg side of things and I do programming myself - it’s funny how often I’ve delved into this arena being a fan of Ghost in the Shell and all lol.
So my thinking is like this:
If there is a cookie jar - history shows us that scientists can’t help but stick their hands in it. Think of Starfish Prime - literally exploding tritium and all having no clue of the outcome. Way worse than playing with fire right?
Nuclear weapons evolved into a “only do this testing in space”. This is extremely valid given the idea we could have sentient cyborg / robotic entities right? One of the things I keep coming across is the term “Biological Android” when reading some of these bioethics articles. They literally increasingly see us as programmable flesh. So on that end if we are to become interstellar and explore space - wouldn’t it be the exact scenario a cyborg would be best for? How about a treaty of not developing on-world but only off-world. I mean ethics in space is almost nondescript so hay.
Physical augmentation - why not? I think core augmentation could improve tons of lives. Now it would also create tons of problems. Imagine an H+ type world where people are jacked into networks 24/7. That’s a sociological problems we are hurdling past faster and fast that quite frankly is not governable. That’s one I toil with.
