Summary

The author defines transhumanism as a merger of humankind with the machine. An illustration of this is the fact that artificial intelligence makes important decisions for us every day. The book confronts the paradox of what the author calls "good people constructing a digital abomination." Among the topics the book covers are the emergence of Scientism, government-mandated mRNA vaccines, and the visions of cyborg billionaires like Elon Musk.
