    Totally fine, it will be our technological goal. The natural biological functions that come from nature are far more powerful then artificial systems we build.

      should we tho? i think morals should come before utlity. we should ask ourselves more if we should do smth rather than ask what it would grant us

        Why should your morality be more important then mine? Morality is a deeply personal thing and a thing of the times.

        Until 150 years ago it was moral to enslave people of different colour.
        In some parts of the world it is still moral to withhold marriage rights to same sex couples.

            so do you believe everyone was immoral until 150 years ago (participation in and tolerance for slavery) or do you believe we are immoral today for denying the right to own slaves (as allowed by religious texts)?

              i think the quran doesn’t permit owning slaves no,not now not back then. so yeah everyone 150 years ago that supported human slavery(human is important word here) is immoral. i however do believe it was moral for king/prophet solomon to enslave demons by force as a personal grant from god.

                So then everyone before the Quran was immoral? literally not a single human being existed before the Quran was written who was moral? Or were they immoral without knowing it because nobody had told them “slavery is wrong” yet? That seems profoundly unjust.

                It’s also important to note that according to Surah Al-An’am 6:112, any human who rebels against God and dedicated themselves to leading others astray is classified as a demon.

                So I guess enslaving an atheist activist like Richard Dawkins is morally acceptable according to you? Since he is, according to the Quran, a demon?

                  word demons generally refer to jinn(smoke fire hybrid beings) demons. not humans demons. so i dont think human demons could be enslaved. regardless this was for solomon,its not clear from quran if this is a eternal permit to enslave jinn demons(like some solomonic magicians claim) or a one off thing only for solomon.

        are you talking about real morals humans follow, or nonsense “morals” written in a religious text several thousand years ago?
