Transhumanists, according to Bostrom, anticipate an era in which biotechnology, molecular nanotechnologies, artificial intelligence and other new types of cognitive tools will be used to amplify our intellectual capacity, improve our physical capabilities and even enhance our emotional well-being.
The end result would be a new form of "posthuman" life with beings that possess qualities and skills so exceedingly advanced they no longer can be classified simply as humans.
Bostrom declined to predict an exact time frame when this revolutionary biotechnological metamorphosis might occur. "Maybe it will take eight years or 200 years," he said. "It is very hard to predict."

| By Christa Sommerer, Lakhmi C. Jain, Laurent Mignonneau £98.00 01 Jul 2008 Hardback Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Artists and creators in interactive art and interaction design have long been conducting research on human-machine interaction. Through artistic, conceptual, social and critical projects, they have shown how interactive digital processes are essential elements for their artistic creations. Resulting prototypes have often reached beyond the art arena into areas such as mobile computing, intelligent ambiences, intelligent architecture, fashionable technologies, ubiquitous computing and pervasive gaming. Many of the early artist-developed interactive technologies have influenced new design practices, products and services of today's media society. This book brings together key theoreticians and practitioners of this fields. It shows how historically relevant the issues of interaction and interface design are, as they can be analyzed not only from an engineering point of view but from a social, artistic and conceptual, and even commercial angle as well. |

The origin of life is one of the outstanding conundrums of modern biology, which has been tackled mostly from a chemical point of view. It is also the playground of creationists who use probability arguments to deny that life could ever have begun "at random". The latter (Babuna, 2008; Gotfryd, 2008; Gundogdu, 2008) especially like to quote scientists who express doubt, such as:
"In a popular lecture I once unflatteringly described the thinking of these scientists as a 'junkyard mentality'. Since this reference became widely and not quite accurately quoted I will repeat it here. A junkyard contains all the bits and pieces of a Boeing 747, dismembered and in disarray. A whirlwind happens to blow through the yard. What is the chance that after its passage a fully assembled 747, ready to fly, will be found standing there? So small as to be negligible, even if a tornado were to blow through enough junkyards to fill the whole Universe" (Hoyle, 1984).
I would like to suggest that artificial life (Alife) enthusiasts take up Fred Hoyle's challenge, that in a way they simulate a tornado going through a junkyard of parts, and come up with something we would all agree is alive, in the Alife sense, from components that are not alive in the Alife sense (Pennock, 2001; Pennock, 2007).
