Nothing to say, yet
Advancements in technology may affect our humanity, but we still have the choice to accept or reject cybernetic enhancements. While these enhancements can make life easier, they may also make us less human. However, they can also help people with disabilities experience the world more like we do. When thinking about all the advancements in technology within the world today, I often think back to how it will ultimately affect my humanity. I have to be honest, if I were to detect any losses and or gains, the list would not stretch out for miles. A gain that could occur from my sense of humanity would correlate so to the fact of free will. Although these advancements are being made, there is no company or law is being enforced that requires us to contribute and or use any of these technological phenomenons. They still give us our right to choose, whether or not to accept any, as some would call them, cybernetic enhancements. The only loss I can truly think of within my sense of humanity is that accepting help from any of these cybernetic enhancements could make us less human and more cybernetic. Yes, they are useful and do become an extension of oneself depending on the required cybernetic help, but they are not organic. They lack that one important detail that helps differentiate man from machine, but another gain would revolve around helping people with disabilities become more human. A lot of the cybernetic enhancements can help those certain people perceive the world as we do, or as close to that as possible. Thank you.
