On human enhancement by means of converging technologies.
A set of technologies are converging in their application to improve the human body and mind. The combination includes nanotechnology, information technology and communications, biotechnology, synthetic biology, cognitive science, neurotechnology, robotics and artificial intelligence. Applications that are already available or those planned for the near future are attracting considerable international ethical debate. This paper discusses the main aspects of the controversy and suggests the need for an early ethical assessment of human enhancement programs.
Palavras-chave : human enhancement; converging technologies; ethical assessment.
