Transhumanists hope to transcend or at least improve upon biological existence. Some want to use technology to live forever, others to perform better, and still others to exit the body and find a better home for consciousness. Following through on mechanomorphism, transhumanism holds that people can be upgraded just like machines. By blurring the line between what we think of as biological and technological, transhumanists hope to ease our eventual, inevitable transition to life on a silicon chip.
