| description | The philosophy of transhumanism is a theory close to artificial intelligence, which is mostly seen in the form of science fiction movies, and based on it, with the help of artificial intelligence, human intelligence and physiology have been modified and increased, and as a result, we will see a new advanced human. This theory looks at the future of artificial intelligence from the perspective of threats and presents a picture of the future of man that has been more influential in sciences such as biomedical technology, sociology, psychology, art and philosophy more than other sciences. This theory has also been named as "the most dangerous idea in the world" by theorists such as "Francis Fukuyama". For this reason, considering that transhumanism covers a wide range of ideas, it was necessary to address this issue. Based on this, using available scientific data and theorists' opinions, we investigated this meta-technology based on artificial intelligence from the approach of cognitive and philosophical sciences. In this article, inspired by the hypotheses of Le Breton (2008) and using the descriptive-analytical method, this theory has been examined. It also answers the question of what is the position of man in the era of transhumanism and how the combination of the two will be in the future. This article also discusses technological determinism and social ethics at the time of the emergence of robots with human capabilities. |
