[ExI] U.S. spy agency predicts a very transhuman future by 2030

[BillK]

The National Intelligence Council has just released its much
anticipated forecasting report, a 140-page document that outlines
major trends and technological developments we should expect in the
next 20 years. Among their many predictions, the NIC foresees the end
of U.S. global dominance, the rising power of individuals against
states, a growing middle class that will increasingly challenge
governments, and ongoing shortages in water, food and energy. But they
also envision a future in which humans have been significantly
modified by their technologies — what will herald the dawn of the
transhuman era.

Looks like transhumanism is becoming very mainstream these days.
