Scientism, Not Science, Drives Technocracy And Transhumanism
https://www.technocracy.news/scientism- … shumanism/

Technocracy is to the structure of society and economy as Transhumanism is to the people who live there. The common ground between Technocracy and Transhumanism is Scientism, or the worship of science. Scientism replaces God and creates its own priesthood to administer its pseudo-science to society while crushing all opposing narratives. ⁃ TN Editor

Re: Genetic Engineering

Maybe more Neuralink and Cyborg than Gene engineering

Berkeley Engineers Develop Neuromorphic Sensor
https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ac … tt.3c02681

A new method for electronics and circuits giving it several "neuromorphic" functionalities

Biological nervous systems rely on the coordination of billions of neurons with complex, dynamic connectivity to enable the ability to process information and form memories. In turn, artificial intelligence and neuromorphic computing platforms have sought to mimic biological cognition through software-based neural networks and hardware demonstrations utilizing memristive circuitry with fixed dynamics. To incorporate the advantages of tunable dynamic software implementations of neural networks into hardware, we develop a proof-of-concept artificial synapse with adaptable resistivity. This synapse leverages the photothermally induced local phase transition of VO2 thin films by temporally modulated laser pulses. Such a process quickly modifies the conductivity of the film site-selectively by a factor of 500 to “activate” these neurons and store “memory” by applying varying bias voltages to induce self-sustained Joule heating between electrodes after activation with a laser. These synapses are demonstrated to undergo a complete heating and cooling cycle in less than 120 ns.

Re: Genetic Engineering

Some reports on China science, news from Chinese says the Rhesus monkey has become the first cloned primate to survive to healthy adulthood. They report the monkey still alive after two years - some suggest Blade Runner future and we nearer to replicating humans?
They reported the cloned rhesus monkey has survived for more than two years and has led to "valuable insights"
