Transhumanist Technologies

The toolbox for upgrading Homo sapiens from a biological default to a customizable platform. These are the devices, implants, and software designed to enhance human capabilities beyond natural limits. Think neural interfaces for direct brain-to-web browsing, advanced prosthetics stronger and more sensitive than biological limbs, retinal displays that overlay data on reality, and gene therapies for boosted cognition or immunity. It's not about treating illness, but about elective improvement—turning the human body into a project with swappable parts and downloadable skills.

*Example: "He showed up to the pick-up game with transhumanist tech: myoelectric ankle implants for perfect jumps and a cortical link that gave him a 10% reaction time boost. We still beat him because he spent the whole time tweaking his settings and forgot to pass the ball."* Transhumanist Technologies

Transhumanist Engineering

The discipline of designing, integrating, and maintaining the complex systems that enhance human biology. It's a fusion of biomedical engineering, robotics, computer science, and ethics. Practitioners don't just build a bionic arm; they solve the interface problem between silicon and nerve tissue, manage power systems for implanted devices, and write the OS that lets the brain control it all intuitively. It's engineering where the most critical component is a living, squishy, and unpredictable human being who wants to feel "normal" while being superhuman.

Example: "She's a transhumanist engineer. Her latest project is a bio-compatible battery that runs on glucose and oxygen from the bloodstream, powering a suite of internal sensors. The prototype works great, but the test subject now craves three extra candy bars a day." Transhumanist Engineering

Transhumanist Sciences

The interdisciplinary research that makes enhancement possible. This blends cutting-edge neuroscience (mapping the connectome), synthetic biology (writing genetic code for new traits), materials science (creating biocompatible scaffolds), and information theory (understanding consciousness as data). It's the foundational knowledge that asks: How do we safely merge mind and machine? How do we edit the genome without side effects? It's the "R&D" phase of human evolution, conducted in labs before it hits the showroom.

Example: "His lab in transhumanist sciences looks like a cyberpunk crime scene. They're mapping how motor cortex signals decay through a neural lace, while the biology team next door grows muscle tissue enhanced with carbon nanotubes. It's all for a 'voluntary upgrade' market that doesn't legally exist yet."

Transhuman Dread

Transhuman dread feels like a paralyzing, overwhelming fear that causes a person's mind and body to freeze. It's the visceral reaction to witnessing something that appears both human and impossible, like a being that is unnaturally large, fast, and powerful moving with the speed of a predator. This fear can be so intense that it leads to a loss of motor control, such as freezing in place or involuntary loss of bladder and bowel control.

"Transhuman dread. Aximand had heard iterators talk of the condition. He’d heard descriptions of it from regular Army officers too. The sight of an Adeptus Astartes was one thing: taller and broader than a man could ever be, armoured like a demigod. The singularity of purpose was self-evident. An Adeptus Astartes was designed to fight and kill anything that didn’t annihilate it first. If you saw an Adeptus Astartes, you knew you were in trouble. The appearance alone cowed you with fear."

Alternative Transhumanism

Alternative Transhumanism, also Alt-Transhumanism or Alt-H+, is a term, often pejorative, to refer to ideologies, philosophies and ideas that are considered as transhumanism but they aren't part of classical transhumanism or make opposition to classical transhumanism, that doesn't advocate the classical transhumanist ideas of mixing with machines and AI and nor even to become classical cyborgs, androids and machines. Some ideologies, philosophies and ideas that are considered as forms of alternative transhumanism are: (Techno)psionicism, quantumism, extraphysicism, spiritualicism, (techno)vibrationalism, divinialism, geneticism, esoteric soulism, esoteric transhumanism and post-spacetimeism.

"Alternative Transhumanism is not that bad, it's actually good to break the hegemony of classical transhumanism and show it's possible to have other alternatives for human evolution besides the classical transhumanism itself. But it might take some time until classical transhumanism become hegemonic, but it might happen in less than 10 years from now."

Anunnaki Transhumanism

Anunnaki Transhumanism, also Anunnotranshumanism, is a transhumanist ideology that seeks to adopt Anunnaki values and principles inside transhumanism, such as the use of Anunnaki technologies on it, such as extraphysical technologies, bioextraphysical technologies, quantum technologies, post-spacetime technologies and divine technologies as well. Anunnaki transhumanism also seeks to turn humanity into an Anunnaki species and into an extraphysical and post-spacetime civilization by transhumanism, and also restoring the cult and worship to the Anunnaki gods and the human connection with them. Anunnaki transhumanism also supports the replacement of materialism and physicalism by spiritualism, extramaterialism and extraphysicalism and the development of extraphysicism, technoextraphysicism, bioextraphysicism, spiritualicism, divinialism, post-spacetimeism and quantumism to develop its technologies and accomplish its technological and transhumanist goals as well.

"The idea of anunnaki transhumanism is really cool, it's a nice way to unite all main alternative transhumanist ideologies and to fix the mistakes the Anunnaki did in the past on Earth and to turn humanity into an Anunnaki species as well."
