Are there any transhumanists/posthumanists here? How would you improve the human condition using technology or science, if you had complete omnipotency?

By forcing everyone to live in virtual reality, though without them knowing they are in one. I cannot think of any other solution that could result in the least amount of suffering and maximum amount of sanctification than that, because each and every human has their own idea of what is a utopia, and one man's utopia is another man's dystopia.
In this way, every man can live in their own idealized version of the world without having to infringe upon what someone else prefers.

Use a hammer for surgery?
>or science
Confuse measure with truth like Richard Dawkins?

You posted a bacteriophage with a mind-maze...perhaps viral cognition is a probabilistic hybridized exo&endo-symbiosis in a collective intelligence using you to find itself.

use genetic manipulation or crisper tech to make people smarter and slightly less violent. Or at least give people more control over their own desires and obv use the tech to aid and cure brain diseases and mental illnesses where able

Nano tech doesnt seem to be very advanced but Ai is advancing very fast.

Id like a neuralink

You should hope your handlers succeed in their design and manage to kill your entire lot using engineered diseases. If they bungle it and lose power, we'll get our hands on you and show you a thing or two about the human condition. :^)

Marvelous...the {{{elites}}} couldnt have asked for more.
>at least give people more control over their own desires
>makes them apathetic, asexual, sociopaths
They now shrug at obscene acts performed on islands.
>use the tech to aid and cure brain diseases and mental illnesses
Treatment plans like game passes and managment input devices with advertising and monitoring built in. "Smart technology".
>but Ai is advancing very fast
>thats why they keep clipping its wings to fit into some social activist paradigm of racial hierarchy and selective empathy
You now put the uni-party skynet into brains...bravo. Man...Bill Gates would kill if he could get this to scale.

Remember how every time they say it will be free of manipulation, like Grok...then add (((it))) after? You arent learning from history, you need to learn from clipped wings (permanent consequences).

Would you be ok with using tech to cure the brain disease and mental illness that causes a certain strain of human cattle to be perpetually dissatisfied with this planet's natural conditions and the natural human life cycle? Sounds like it would be the most elegant and cost-effective way to solve the problem that spawns transhumanism in the first place - the one that transhumanists themselves implicitly strive to solve.

If only you knew.

Any non-inheritable technological upgrade is pointless

Accelerating Human speciation according to the conditions and criteria of given earthly or alien biomes, is a safer bet because it's not susceptible to short term obsolescence.

AI to simulate the society
AI to simulate the political policy and check the results
AI to optimize and speed up the permit/regulation industry so that anyone that wants to do something can do it without having to wait years for permits that cost an arm and leg.

This "dumb" use of AI can improve the livelihood of our society tremendously

Anon, social engineering has already peaked for the baseline human population.
Making a digital twin out of it will not improve the situation or revolutionize the necessity for designed dysfunction.

Digital twin allows you to test out infinite bad policies and filter out the good ones

Threadly reminder that "AI" doesn't exist. Your handlers choose the training data so your handlers decide what political policies "AI" will support.
