TRANSHUMANITY AND HYBRIDITY IN APPLESEED 7.1. Introduction With rapid developments in the technologies available for human enhancement, there has been not only a desire for expanding current human capacities but also a certain amount of fear about such possibilities. Scholars have debated the opportunities and risks of human enhancement, but advancements in different fields such as genetics, nanotechnology, and robotics mean that a more sophisticated debate on human enhancement is urgently required.74 One contributor has been the philosopher Nicholas Ager, who argues against what he calls the radical enhancement or the augmentation and transformation of the intellectual and physical capacities of human beings well beyond that of ours today. In his book Humanity’s End: Why We Should Reject Radical Enhancement (2010), Ager puts forward an argument of species-relativism on the premise that human beings as a biological species share certain experiences and ways of existing, which may not be valued by the members of another species, such as radically enhanced beings or posthumans.75 Ager writes that “radical enhancement involves improving significant human attributes and abilities to levels that greatly exceed what is currently possible for human beings” (ibid., 1). He rejects this 74 Ongoing debates in the field of bioethics, a subfield of applied ethics, have engaged not only with philosophical traditions but also with biological and medical sciences, computer science, law, history, sociology, anthropology and so forth.
