摘要
Research in human enhancement technologies (e.g., nanotechnology, genetic engineering, robotics et cetera) is exploding bringing unforeseen solutions that will expand human capabilities further. Therefore, new socio-ethical issues need to be continuously addressed. In this scenario, we argue that a revolution in addressing these issues is needed and that we should enable a democratic process to cause broader reflections on the future augmented humanity. We will present the SuperHumains.ch project as an example of educational and collaborative thinking on the future of human enhancement.
