Anthropology of Hybrid Humanity: AI and Posthumanism

The text analyzes the dispute over AGI as an anthropological conflict, examining the relationship between the biological substrate and digital extension. The author contrasts transhumanism—understood as an Enlightenment program for the optimization and enhancement of human abilities—with a posthumanist vision of co-evolution. In the latter, humans are not replaced by machines but participate in creating the so-called Fused Mind, where the boundary between the subject and technology becomes permeable. The article draws attention to the ethical risks associated with the hierarchization of people based on their degree of enhancement and interprets radical transhumanist trends as a form of secular faith in overcoming biological limitations, such as death or cognitive deficits.
