People have now the option to improve their bodies by purchasing upgrades in shops — strength, agility, endurance, or the ability to interact with the Internet of things without wires and touches (neuron interfaces). But the main challenge will be improving the human brain. Indeed, high intelligence and the ability to make the right strategic decisions is not favorable to any of the existing political systems.
Therefore, the chances are that the augmentation of features like IQ, memory, logical thinking, physical ability for self-learning or training won’t be available to everyone. The main threat is that such an access to self-upgrades can literally take people very quickly to a new stage, setting them apart from the rest of humanity in terms of mental capacity, morality, and other aspects, just as we are different from apes in terms of our mental abilities.
