Transhumanism is a philosophical and technological movement that explores the use of advanced technologies to enhance or alter human physical, cognitive, and biological capabilities. It is based on the idea that human limitations—such as aging, disease, and environmental constraints—are not fixed, and could be modified through tools like genetic engineering, medical implants, or artificial intelligence.

While some proponents see transhumanism as a way to expand human potential or adapt to extreme environments, others raise concerns about ethics, inequality, and how such changes might affect society. As a result, transhumanism is less a prediction of the future than an ongoing debate about how technology should shape what it means to be human.
