Transhumanism is a cultural phenomenon that is gaining increasingly more notoriety in the Western public space. The transhumanist movement is an eclectic, interpretative community, bringing together concerns reffering to the extension of human life, the creation of a non-human alterity -particularly in the form of Artificial Intelligence -, the radical improvement of cognitive, sensory and motor performances, and even the increase in the level of morality of the individual.
