Recently the possibility of posthuman or transhuman is discussed by those who give attention to the development of emerging technologies, such as nanotechnology, neuroscience, biotechnology, information technology. The posthuman broadening or exceeding the natural human capabilities by overcoming aging, cognitive shortcomings, involuntary suffering is the enhanced human being. This article aims to look at the human enhancement by means of emerging technologies from a perspective of Kant’s moral philosophy. In his moral philosophical viewpoint, I examine some questions, whether a becoming posthuman can be justified and what problems there are for human to become posthuman. I"ll not deal with issues of safety and security. Because these are technological ones, rather than philosophical ones. In this article I’ll show you it is not true that the technological enhancement of human capabilities would be rejected by Kant in his moral philosophical perspective. On the contrary, I argue that the technological enhancement of human capability is permissible, even recommended by Kant’s moral philosophy, if it contribute to the perfection of humanity.
