I am a Cyborg

Well, actually, we all are

In this witty talk, Amber makes the case that technology is an extension of our humanity, and talks about the new sapiens, Cyborg Sapiens.

Personally, I know I`m hopelessly hooked in to the matrix, so hopelessly in fact that my hope lies in never escaping the digital world I`m part of, and that to some extension, has become part of me.

The phrase I like most in this talk is that technology, the tools we currently use, have for the first time become an extension of our minds instead of our bodies.

Well, books were also an extension of the mind, but still, never in such a way that a mere simple chat-room can transcend space and time.

All the best,

Alex
