Extropianism is a philosophy that aims to achieve a future beyond human limitations by means of technology. There are several synonyms that are used to describe this movement such as transhumanism, which refers to the belief in the enhancement of human capabilities through technology. Cybernetics is another synonym that emphasizes the merging of humans and machines to achieve the same goal of a post-human future. Singularitarianism, on the other hand, refers to the belief that artificial intelligence will eventually surpass human intelligence and change the course of human evolution. Regardless of the synonym used, extropianism represents a futuristic and optimistic view of human potential and the role of technology in shaping our future.
