Abstract

The advent of advanced technologies such as AI, IoT, and SmartDust is poised to transform not only human life but also human nature itself. SmartDust, in particular, offers unprecedented possibilities for integrating tiny, intelligent devices within human biology, leading to the convergence of digital and biological systems. This integration, often discussed in the context of transhumanism, raises ethical and existential questions as it blurs the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds. While technological convergence promises to enhance intellectual, physical, and mental capacities, it also poses challenges related to control, identity, and privacy. The potential emergence of bio-cyber entities—humans augmented by machine intelligence—marks a profound shift in the human condition, which could lead to irreversible changes in human evolution and societal structures. As we enter this era, it is critical to explore balanced approaches that protect the essence of humanity, ensuring that technology serves as a tool for enhancement rather than a force for subjugation.
