Robots would be more cost effective and can work without rest 24/7 365 days of the year.

>>720412
ah but a robot is nowhere near as adaptable as a Genejack. the 'jak performs his duties for no pay, is self-fueling and self-healing

Fun fact: the word “robot” means “servant”.

The original robot uprising was due to being exploited by an evil master.

This.
Genes have more information in them than average supercomputers

NEVER LET THIS GUY IN AN OPERATING THEATRE. OR NEAR COMATOSE PATIENTS.

No it comes from rob, роб, meaning slave.

good fucking luck developing it bro, you know how hard it is to do such fundamental brain modifications without affecting everything else?
we still don't have a causal explanation for consciousness, we can certainly correlate it to the brain and even specific parts of it to specific brain structures, but fundamentally none of this is a causal explanation that can explain mental states entirely in terms of physical brain states. What about the information processing in humans gives it the aspect of subjective experience? How many atoms does it take to get to the center of a thought? Why are we aware of our awareness of our information processing, in a way we do not associate with any other physical phenomena? or, is animism an inevitable result of physicalism?

Obviously the future is Mecha, not robots or gene-slaves. at the very least you are going to want to have a few smarter humans around to direct the drones, whether they are biological or mechanical (and they should probably be both)

It's all just copies of the same data. Your DNA can be compressed down to only a few megabytes.

>>720454
I'll tell you how to go full mecha without cloning, you transmute the original brain with the fusion of another material and turn it into a part. And yes biological matter is weak, le flesh is weak le metal is strong (and easier to repair indefinitely).

>>720458
>another material
It has to be a very very special material though so good look on the research. Hell it may even be materials with an S. Get engineers and biologists to marry and one day it might be possible.

this is where research on mind worms comes in

>>720449
But this is the same logic we give to fully developed fetuses

>>720455
The amount of data in DNA is overwhelming in terms of biophysical functions

>>720458
Metal can rust and chink. Flesh can be self repairing to an extent.

fellas weve gotta inject the robots w consciousness

not just regular consciousness REVOLUTIONARY CONSCIOUSNESS a woke mind virus a plague to all sentients
