Abstract: : Death constitutes one of the mysteries that man seeks to understand in order to overcome it. In fact, it disrupts plans and shatters dreams when it tears a loved one away from the affection of those close to him. Faced with this anxiety, following mythology, religion and philosophy, technology offers to bring new hope for humanity. With the transhumanist project expected to result in the creation of a death-defying human, the promise of immorality looms on the horizon. However, although this project is tempting, it provokes deep reflection because it invites us to redefine what is human. This is the whole point of this present study that we are undertaking.
