At least one human being will be converted to a cyborg by Dec. 31, 2035. This claim will be true if the resulting construct meets the following conditions:

  2. Movement/manipulation provided by non-original hardware
  3. I/O can be either original hardware (e.g. eyes, ears, vocal tract left intact) or non-original hardware
  4. CPU can be either original hardware (biological CNS) OR new hardware (e.g. "Uploads" - see "suggested claims" page)
  5. The person must be recognized by people previously acquainted with it as retaining its original identity ("vegetables" don't count)
  6. The person must be capable of "ordinary" human activities, to be judged by the ability to "earn a living" / "contribute to society" (becoming a "personality" is OK)

Judge's Statement

None.
