Abstract: The following work will present the ways in which technology has managed to intervene and enhance certain aspects of human cognition so far. It will analyze the positive and negative consequences of these interventions, and finally, an evaluation will be made based on the ethical theories of deontology and utilitarianism. The aim of the work is an in-depth exploration within the framework of bioethics, of the alternative solutions that technology presents to everyday problems, such as cognitive disorders (Schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s) as well as simple human difficulties such as lack of attention or creativity. Through all these, we will see what the capabilities of humans are at this moment, what they could be in the future, and whether this future is truly desirable.
