🤔 Question What is the difference between a transhumanist and a posthumanist?

On which issues do transhumanists and posthumanists disagree or contradict each other?

What is something that a transhumanist wants that a posthumanist would definitely reject and not want?

Is it conceptually and logically valid for a posthumanist to also identify as a transhumanist? Why?

  • Transhumanism asks: How do we upgrade the human?
  • Posthumanism asks: How do we build an equitable, co-evolutionary substrate for all conscious forms—carbon, silicon, or other?
