Ability to Advance Knowledge and Capacity to Achieve the Impossible
Abstract
This chapter focuses on human achievement as accomplished with the use of technology to explore humanity's most daunting challenges. While ancient Promethean myths echo a threat of the human use of technology, transhumanism offers a social construct to inform and mitigate many impending threats. The aim is to encourage life-long learning—ongoing, voluntary, and self-motivated pursuit of knowledge—through immersive and educational platforms for ethical leadership in a world of rapid change. Notably, there are counter arguments to an intervention of the human condition, which often expose themselves as biases of moral perception that, in due course, fall short. Yet, humans continue to be fueled by curiosity and a need for amelioration to transcend limits. What is lacking and most imminently necessary to deal with the exponentially increasing technology in our midst, and to society's varied perceptions and reactions, is straightforward knowledge and guidance in navigating towards the telos of our humanity.
