Week 4:Integrated Circuit

This week we discussed what a cyborg is and our thoughts and opinions on cyborgs, as well as some ideas of a changing future. Some of what was discussed was about humanity and how we view humanity in relation to the cyborgs. The quote that stuck out to me this week was regarding the need for the family structure to evolve in order to maintain our humanity. This aspect was of particular interest to me, as family structures have certainly evolved over time, and as we have seen the current structure may be broken, and many studies show that monogamy goes against human nature, so it may be much more human to be involved in plural relationships, and to change our family structures.



"We may welcome this evolution of the family or we may resist it, but we must begin conspicuously choosing sustainable family structures that support the welfare of our children, or we may risk the very survival of humanity."(Dr. Anapol)
