Profit, the glory of achieving scientific “firsts,” and perhaps most dangerous of all, a transhumanist ideology which divorces “progress” from natural human betterment or even continuance, continually show themselves as primary drivers in the field.
For evidence of that, see the many links in “TECHNOCRACY BRIEFS: FRIENDLY ROBOTS TAKING YOUR JOB, AND GENTECH SELECTING HIGH IQ BABIES” (22 Oct 2024), “THE SYNTHETIC DEVOLUTION” (2 Jan 2024) and also:
- “TECHNO EUGENICS: SUPERIOR BABIES JUST A POLYGENIC RISK SCORE AWAY” (12 Oct 2021)
- “TECHNOCRACY BRIEFS: AI ARMS RACE, MORE INDUSTRY LIES ABOUT HUMAN IMPACTS, AND TASTIER (GENE-EDITED) VEGGIES” (19 Nov 2024)
- “TECHNOCRACY BRIEFS: CRISPR GOES TO THE RACES, AND BILL GATES SAYS AI WILL RELEGATE HUMANS TO ‘ENTERTAINMENT ONLY’” (11 Feb 2025)

We long catalogued and presented examples in these pages of the uber—and ultimately transhuman—tech faith that many leading tech entrepreneurs and sector workers have as part of their ideological DNA.
