A human turned into a robot. In the future it will become possible to create artificially intelligent living robots. Then at a certain time in the future, we will develop a technology to transfer all the memory of a person onto a robotic brain. This way the person will go on with her life as an intelligent living robot. Form this point of time onward this person will no longer be a Homo sapiens; rather, she/he will be a Homobot.
