ABSTRACT

Man’s techno-scientific optimism is massive. There is a newfound zeal, by modern man, in the science of trans-biology. But is trans-biology healthy for life on earth? Will man cause his own extinction by dabbling into trans-biology? Will trans-biology sciences unveil a new technological Darwinism? If man crosses a boundary beyond his humanity and ventures into the dark side of techno-scientific Darwinism, won’t this be the final apocalyptic dystopia which has been predicted thousands of years ago? These are some of the questions reflected in this paper. As we move into the future, we should be aware of adverse consequences of some scientific pursuits. If we ignore out own biological instincts life forms on earth could be destroyed by the emergent self-conscious, selfanimating, self-replicating and self-preserving artificial machine programs. The core philosophy of techno-Darwinian survivalism is that the “fittest” will dominate and exterminate lesser evolved species. They have even made a movie called The Terminator (rise of the machines) where the creation of science became a threat to the human life. Is this movie a predictive mind-programing? Charles Darwin (1809 – 1882) was clear in his intentions and he did not mince words. In the past less evolved anthropomorphous apes were driven to extinction by hominids with larger and smarter brain matter. Darwin stated that advanced races of men will “…certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world.” If this is the case, this sequence is applicable to manmachine relationship in the future. If we follow the thinking of Darwinists, a question naturally arises: What will happen when Artificial Intelligence (AI), supersedes the intelligence of humans a billion times. Will humans be replaced by machine? This paper probes into some existential questions relative to transbiology. Trans-biology revolution is happening right in front of us. Modern humans live in an interesting time of change. We are witnessing a technoscientific revolution different from anything ever recorded in history. Bio transmogrification process is in full display on earth. This transmogrification is designed to usher in a New Earth that is genetically modified as well as a artificially augmented. Many world-event analysts have described this time as The Great Reset. Klaus Schwab marshaled out some of the great changes this century and beyond will experience. Some of these areas involve how science and Big Tech will change everything on earth. Mr. Schwab is the founder and Executive Chairman of World Economic Forum. He sees something majority of people on earth cannot see.
