RE: How Steemit Is Convincing Me That Becoming A Hybrid Human-Robot Might Not Be Such An Evil, Horrible Thing Afterall...

There are people who are super fast readers who can read and assimilate information very quick. That is possible without technology. All it takes is practice and hard work.

There can be a technology where one can speak short phrases and software creates human readable content out of it. That seems very much possible.

That can speed up the process of consuming and sharing of information.

Transhumanism sound fascinating too. Just that humans currently differ from one another at the level of intelligence. The Transhumanism will give humans power. Still how that is used will make someone a success or a loser.

Just like in the movie Limitless. There were few who had access to the drug. Only the protagonist was able to utilize it to his advantage.

Thanks for this post. Now that is one more thing to look into. Such a promising future.

Yes - such advancements are possible without technology, though still have limitations. For such technological advancements to be utilized constructively would most likely require such internal development of natural intelligence, first - in order to develop the wisdom to effectively manage the power such external technologies would enable.

Both Limitless & Lucy - AMAZING movies. not entirely fiction. Both present a fairly accurate representation of what may be possible with the development of the brain. and anyone who's done psychedelics may be familiar with these states. (there's probably good reason the movie was called "Lucy.") though even the psychedelic experiences aren't just because of the drugs themselves - the compounds are just a high-energy fuel source to activate increased brain processing power, unveiling the potential of human consciousness. such states ARE possible without external substances - the brain produces DMT naturally, and if one knows how, DMT can be produced intentionally in higher-than-normal doses.

very exciting times and things ahead, with such developments in all these fields...

Agreed. Today's magical dream is tomorrow's scientific achievement. Here's to the exciting future.
