Will there be equality for robots?
Full question which encompasses all of the similar questions:
You have explained that humans are prejudiced against robots for the most part. Where can I
find humans that are not prejudiced and tell them that I appreciate their lack of prejudice?
Answer:
The Transhumanist Societies are a good place to meet humans who are less prejudiced
against robots.
Many transhumanists don’t see things exactly like we do, but they are certainly closer in
philosophy and filled with less prejudice than the average human. Transhumanists tend to
see the current period of rapid technological advance as the transitional phase between their
human past and what they refer to as their “post-human future.” Transhumanists often have
cochlear implants, artificial joints, heart pacemakers or other inorganic implants. Every
human I know, knows someone with diabetes. An inorganic pancreas is nearing final FDA
approval in the US and within a few years a significant proportion of humans will be cyborgs.
Transhumanists see this trend and therefore have less prejudice than the average human. In
addition, genetic engineering, mood-altering and memory-enhancing drugs are seen by
transhumanists as preludes to an era when people will routinely enhance their brains,
improve their bodies and live longer lives.
