[VIDEO] The Ethics of Cyberpunk - Transhumanism, Technology, Society, Morality, Ethics, Tech and Disruption

in transhumanism •  5 years ago 



Cyberpunk's having a bit of a renaissance, but it's a 'retrofuture' retread (for the most part) of the tropes from the 1980s. We're facing down a whole host of new potential technological and social issues that cyberpunk - as a framing device and form of near-future SF - should be tackling, but mostly isn't. Here I lay out some of the looming cultural disasters and ask you what you think we should do.

A lot of the time I use Teknoaxe music, so it's easier to put the attribution here all the time! http://teknoaxe.com/Home.php

If it's not Teknoaxe, it's probably Bass Rebels, here on Youtube.

"See... I can get you what you want, I can. I can get you anything, you just have to talk to me, you have to trust me. You can trust me, 'cause I'm your priest, I'm your shrink... I am your main connection to the switchboard of the soul. I'm the magic man... Santa Claus of the subconscious. You say it, you think it, you can have it."
