Transhumanist aren't anti-humanism???

It got infected by corpo bastards and they created a splinter group of fasc-transhumanism

But it's a leftist ideal originally, and still has lots of leftist philosophers that believe in it. Popularised by Aldous Huxley's (Brave New World author) brother, Julian

A simple idea: to merge humanity and artificial to make humans that are able to customise their selves as easily as changing clothes, and to defeat death

Some existing not fasc transhumanist factions:

  • Abolitionism - complete removal of all suffering, through technology
  • Equalism - even redistribution of all resources, through technology
  • Postgenderism - complete removal of gender, through artificial wombs, artificial penis with functioning ejaculate, etc, so that people can change gender and sex as easily as clothes, through technology
  • Technogaianism - applying transhumanist ideals to all of nature, to restore Earth's environment and developing safe, clean, alternative technology

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
