““For thousands of generations, humans have lived the same sort of life cycle over and over: we’re born, we control a fragile body, we enjoy a small strip of sensory reality, and then we die. Science may give us the tools to transcend that evolutionary story. We can now hack our own hardware, and as a result our brains don’t need to remain as we’ve inherited them. We’re capable of inhabiting new kinds of sensory realities and new kinds of bodies. Eventually we may even be able to shed our physical forms altogether.””
