Editing Post-Humanism and the Technological Singularity (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Understanding</span> ==
Post-Humanism is understood through '''Evolution''' and '''Dissolution'''.

'''1. The "Final" Invention (The Singularity)''':
"Intelligence" "Explodes."
* (See Article 08). **Kurzweil** "Argues" that "AI" will "Eventually" "Design" "Better AI."
* This "Feedback Loop" "Creates" an **"Exponential Growth"** of "Knowledge."
* At the **"Singularity,"** "Progress" "Becomes" "So Fast" that "Unaugmented Humans" "Cannot" "Understand" it.
* "The Future" is **"Opaque"** to the "Past."

'''2. From "Person" to "Information" (Mind Uploading)''':
"Substrate" is "Irrelevant."
* (See Article 670). Post-humanists "View" the "Human Self" as a **"Pattern of Information"** (The Connectome).
* If we can **"Copy"** that pattern into a **"Computer,"** we can "Live" "Forever."
* This "Rejects" the "Idea" of a **"Biological Soul"** (see Article 112).
* "Being" is **"Computation."**

'''3. The "End" of the Human (Post-Anthropocentrism)''':
"We are not the Center."
* (See Article 661). **Post-Humanism** "Deconstructs" the "Barrier" between "Human," "Animal," and "Machine."
* It "Argues" that "Humans" are **"Symbiotic"** with their "Tools."
* We have "Already" "Become" **"Cyborgs"** through our "Smartphones" and "Medicines."
* "Humanity" is a **"Flow,"** not a "Fixed State."

'''The 'Law of Accelerating Returns' '''': Kurzweil’s "Observation" that "Evolution" (Biological and Technological) "Accelerates" because "Information" "Builds" on itself. It proved that "The Future" "Arrives" **"Faster"** than we "Expect."
