Resumen:
This work promotes the thesis that humans are naturally transhuman. In order to achieve this,we present in the first two sections some examples of technological devices assembled tohuman beings, and we critically review the assumptions and dichotomies on which the idea ofhuman enhancement is based according to the ordinary transhumanist vision. Thirdly, wepresent the thesis of the Extended Mind to support our intuition. Fourthly, we dismantle themost relevant philosophical dichotomies that structure the transhumanist position. Finally, werecapitulate the reasons why we should wake up from the transhumanist dream.
