Résumé

Within a few years, brain computer interfaces, intelligent exoskeletons and organ 3D printing have jumped from science fiction to reality. Is human-machine fusion now inevitable ?

This mini book in the Nouveaux Horizons collection published by Maison d'édition : Five Minutes deciphers the major advances of 2024-2025. It explains how BCIs allow paralysed patients to control a robotic arm and a woman with aphasia to speak through thought. It details exoskeletons that increase leg strength by 20 %, AI powered digital twins that forecast our diseases and 3D printed organs produced by microscopes and algorithms. It analyses the CRISPR gene therapy approved for sickle cell disease, injectable antennas that power deep implants and California's law that recognises neural data as sensitive. The last part explores ethical issues and the need for neurorights to protect our mental privacy.

Through rigorous analysis and concrete examples, this book offers an informed reflection on the promises and dangers of human enhancement. Intended for professionals, students and curious readers, it helps to understand how these innovations reshape our future and why ethical and legal frameworks are essential.

Dive into this work to grasp the opportunities and challenges of human-machine fusion and join the debates that will shape our societies tomorrow.
