RESUMEN

Propósito/Contexto: como propuesta transhumanista, los implantes neurales generan un binomio cerebro-dispositivo que, desde la libertad morfológica, se considera como un derecho a ser sujetos y al mismo tiempo medios y protagonistas de las propias transformaciones; sin embargo, se presentan inquietudes de cómo se interpreta la libertad morfológica con el uso de estos dispositivos.
Metodología/Enfoque: con base en cinco casos ficticios, se realiza un análisis de las connotaciones que tienen los implantes neurales desde la libertad morfológica como postura transhumanista, entendida especialmente con base en los planteamientos de Anders Sandberg.
Resultados/Hallazgos: la libertad morfológica proporciona una mirada de la autonomía que dota de contenido al uso de los implantes neurales como propuesta transhumanista. Los desafíos que emergen implican reflexiones a situaciones como el hackeo, la privacidad de la información, el rendimiento personal, el uso militar y la misma identidad de las personas.
Discusión/Conclusiones/Contribuciones: como en otras neurotecnologías, los avances con los implantes neurales son progresivos, diversos y parecieran no tener límites, lo que aumenta las posibilidades de exploración en la procura del mejoramiento. Estas innovaciones también interpelan a la libertad morfológica, vistas desde un sujeto que al mismo tiempo se convierte en objeto para lograr el mejoramiento.
