Neuroenhancement and the pressure to perform.

Beschreibung

The brain is no longer the biological substrate where personal identity, character or cognition are encapsuled. Identities have become flexible and part of individual decision-making. Concepts of cognition, intelligence, or character have become fractured, subject of a multitude of sciences and regulative settings. Dissolving borders of former ontological entities and new structural relations of such terms (like disentangling “human” from “artificial intelligence”, and its enhancement from social settings, genetic disposition, or nutrition, to name a few) pose a delicate challenge in conceptualizing neuroenhancement and its governance dimensions.
