Many transhumanists think that homo
sapiens will be replaced by artificial life. They are talking about the death of life. There has got to be
some catch here, maybe they don't want their own
death, they want to stop their competitors, then they can realize their Nerd dream of controlling artificial life and
the world!
But life and the evolution of life
won't go down that easily. We will develop artificial life but it
will be as an aid to the evolution of life
and an aid to our own evolution, and not merely the designing
of cyborgs and artificial “life.” In other words, life itself instinctively probably won't allow the monstrous dream of turning all life into artificial life.
