Dependency on Technology
Relying on synthetic tissues and augmentations also raises concerns about dependency. What happens if these systems fail, or if maintenance and upkeep are required? Could individuals find themselves at greater risk if their synthetic systems malfunction? It’s crucial that we consider the implications of becoming dependent on technology that could leave us vulnerable in unexpected ways.

The perception of invulnerability could have unintended consequences for safety and well-being.
