It looks like all these possible cybernetic updates to the human soul, brain and body are the stuff science fiction is made of. Still, they’re actually very possible, and within our reach (if we live long enough, that is). Excerpts from the article:

#10. Disease immunity.

Between 20 and 40 years into the future, we will become capable of building artificial antibodies that outperform their natural equivalents. Instead of using chemical signaling that relies on diffusion to reach its target, these antibodies will communicate with rapid acoustic pulses. Instead of proteins, they will be made using much more durable polymers or even diamond. These antibodies will move through the bloodstream more quickly than other cells in the bodies, and will take up less space and resources, meaning that there will be room for many more. \…./”

Did I tell you that I want them all?
