When people start fusing biology and technology, they have the ability to rewrite the code of life itself.
In the world of biotechnology, there have been organ farms, governments that have used artificial wombs to rebuild populations, robots with biological parts, genetically altered humans who can heal people through touch, and much more. But what happens to our environment when humans begin to engineer life and turn into an invasive species, and what is going on underground in the secretive labs of biohackers? Would we evolve into a new species of life entirely, less human and more alien?
This is the next stage in human evolution, where we will no longer be mere observers of nature but rather its masters. The first step in this process is bioprinting, which is 3D or even 4D printing that uses living cells called bio inks in place of plastic or metal. These cells are printed layer by layer and have the ability to grow and connect with one another to form biological structures. The alchemist’s dream has come true with bioprinting; some basic applications are bioprinted hair follicles for hair loss and bioprinted ocular corneas. Testing one’s appearance, recovering war wounds, and venturing farther into the future In terms of the human body, bioprinted organs are produced in organ farms to overcome the difficulties of organ shortages, or a patient’s own cells are used to create miniaturized organs or organoids that are used to test medical responses before actual organs are donated.
More advanced bioprinting will result in 3D printed coral reefs that provide habitats for marine life helping to restore damaged ecosystems, or small-scale robotic space stations that are bioprinting factories. Bioprinted prosthetic limbs and administration are tailored to the individual using living tissue to enhance integration with the host’s body.
Cybernetics experiments involve the integration of electronics into bioprinted pieces to create cybernetic organs that surpass natural organs in terms of sophistication. Examples of these include bioprinted lungs equipped with sensors and nano filters to eliminate toxins from the air before they enter the bloodstream, or replacement bionic eyeballs with integrated Zoom or infrared vision. Patients utilizing these experimental bionic eyeballs start reporting paranormal experiences.
Visions: Following an accident that causes him to lose his sight, a former archaeologist has a bionic cornea transplant. With his vision restored, he begins to experience hallucinations in which he claims to be able to see into the past. discovered long-hidden facts that have the power to change the course of history A group of scientists uses bioprinting to manufacture a new sort of skin that can withstand a mysterious flesh-eating sickness that is eradicating parts of a country. Some people applaud the scientists’ efforts. While some people wonder if these people with different skin tones are still members of the human race, there is the field of “living architecture,” where structures are made of bioengineered materials that can clean the air, self-repair, absorb pollutants, and even procreate.
These structures are also made of adhesives inspired by geckos and eco
concrete inspired by coral reefs. Some of these modern buildings are even powered by biological batteries, which store and produce energy using elements like bacteria. However, there have been complaints about forced obsolescence, in which businesses are allegedly manipulating their biomaterials to deteriorate after a certain amount of time, forcing consumers to make repeated purchases. High-rise replacements in these bio structures’ luxurious apartment walls are adorned with bioart; bioartists create living, evolving pieces of art using bioprinters and live tissue.
Living sea barriers shield these City bio dwellings near the ocean from storm surges and increasing sea levels. Bioluminescent lights, plants, bacteria, and algae that are designed to glow in the dark like deep sea creatures are replacing electric street lights in coastal cities that are protected by genetically engineered corals and muscles. However, in a small town where bioluminescent lamps light discreets and purify the air, a sudden decay of the bioluminescent organisms causes darkness to fall. It is up to botanists and engineers to figure out what is killing the neon.
Bloom and bring the town back to light. There were rumors that the lights had been biohacked and reprogrammed to emit toxic pollutants in other places. A robotics business has created a robot that glows in the dark. The company tests the robot at a museum, leading visitors around the exhibits. People wonder if human skin will follow suit, but underground biohackers are already ahead of the game and are testing on their own bodies.
Cyberpunks and biohackers operate clandestinely, beyond the reach of government laws. They experiment with tattooing themselves with digital ink that shows off their online persona and implanting microchips into their arms. They collaborate to hack together to create biocomputers made of living neural tissue and biomaterials.
Cyberpunkers utilize their own DNA as storage devices, resembling nature and able to store enormous amounts of data beneath city streets. They also hack and tweak brain chips, eliminating safety measures for more severe and illegal neural experiences. Biohackers are able to engineer grapes that
ferment into wine in a matter of minutes. They can also create unregulated food that is allergy-free, resistant to pests and diseases, and constantly regenerates its contents.
The biggest buzz is about self-replenishing food containers, which are made of living organisms and are used by biohackers to freeze each other in an attempt to bring their bodies back to life. These biohackers also experiment with genetically-modified pets that glow in the dark or create chimeras—animals created through cross-species mating genes. The term “chimera” originates from Greek mythology and refers to a fire-breathing creature with the body of a lion and the head of Companies are pressuring users to upgrade their bionic prosthetic models by rendering older models useless, which begs the question of who really owns the limbs—the individuals or the corporations?
Bioprinted prosthetic limbs provide a more natural sense of control and complete nervous system integration. Amputations are voluntary in the military. Governments produce super troops by using bionic limbs. A little boy who was paralyzed in an accident uses a bio exoskeleton to learn how to walk again. All bionic prosthetics and bio-exoskeletons come with a
registration tracking number, and scientists are testing them in government-controlled labs. Cutting edge ectogenesis technology, such as pod devices for more dependable external pregnancy and gestation, has made wealthy people’s access to artificial wombs the hope of humanity in an infertile world.
Contract out childbearing to big womb farms
A dictator obsessed with his legacy is rumored to have used artificial wombs to create a large number of offspring with the intention of ruling forever and becoming an immortal dictator. Other fields that use artificial womb technology include space colonization, military use, and endangered species. Governments facing population collapse also own their own farms.
Additionally, studies in the area of extended gestation – in which a body is kept in an artificial womb for an extended length of time – are being conducted to improve an embryo’s innate cognitive and physical capacities. The next multi-trillion dollar business is expected to be in BIO hybrid robots, which are more flexible and energy-efficient due to their construction using biological tissue.
One company is creating biomimetic robots, which can interact with animals and blend in with their surroundings. Although the company claims that these biorobots are intended for biological study or environmental monitoring, there is worry that they could inadvertently end up as an invasive species that destroys native animal habitats and drives them to extinction. Some, however, are concerned that bio-hybrid robots, like drones or robots that can imitate birds so perfectly that another bird cannot tell it’s a machine, could be used for espionage and surveillance.
These robots have the potential to violate international law by allowing governments to send invading biohybrid animals to weaken the sovereignty of other countries, while advanced biohybrid robots have the capacity to quickly produce dangerous bacteria and viruses following a nuclear-scale Biowaste disaster Biohybrid robots that are radiation-resistant represent humanity’s best hope for survival.
They gather trash, rescue survivors, and clean up. Biohazard Waste: The first biorobot becomes a restorer of extinct animals carrying DNA and spawning lost species; these are the neo-humans, real-life X-Men, mostly biohackers who are no longer regarded as human; instead, they represent a completely new species. This is the first person to become a human insect repellent; he inhaled an engineered virus that delivered the crispr components and targeted Gene sequences into his skin cells and sweat glands, where pheromones are now produced that ward off infected insects. A singer has her vocal cords and resonating Chambers bio-engineered to produce an unhuman range of sounds turning her into a living musical instrument a biohacker becomes a Living Canvas using biofabricated skin pigments that change in response to light temperature and mood displaying moving images and art people are able to grow food on their own bodies and Marine biohackers are hacking their own bodies with genes from marine animals creating bioluminescence and gill-like enhancements to breathe underwater there is a new age Wolverine who is resistant to bone fractures thanks to bioengineered collagen enhancements and he is capable of Rapid regeneration with human tissues that are engineered from reptiles and heal at an accelerated rate people are bioengineering themselves to age backwards by manipulating telomeres and cell regeneration a person claims to have the ability of splitting their Consciousness by using organic brain augmentations to perform multitasking on an unprecedented level and the first person is capable of healing others through Touch by transferring regenerative cells Biotechnology is the next stage in the evolution of humanity; it is the drafting table where human design meets the blueprint of nature.
