When cibernetic implats are available, will it count as self improvement?
And if it does, what implant would you use?

eyes all the way

I want to be able to see for miles, in the dark, inside pores. I don't need stronger muscles.

But what I'm seriously interested is not necessarily electronics. It's gene therapy and stem cell therapy.

I want those IO plugs on the back of my neck like in Ghost in the Shell.

Heads up display in my vision. That shit would be amazing to have my to-do list right in my eyes, maybe even have a few ebooks in there.

Brain pacemaker. Shit's being used to treat stuff like epilepsy and depression. I just want to stop feeling too lousy and stressed to function so I can actually do all the things that I need to.

There is no reason why It would not qualify as a form of improvement.

I want to be able to turn my ears off (and preferably back on again). I would also like something that makes me need less sleep.

I don't like the idea of cybernetic implants. It sorta defeats the point of working hard, so that you can improve your lot in lfie.

I would remain non-aug. Like my bio parts as they are.
Also makes one wonder how secure will these things be. They weren't too secure in the game, I doubt they will be IRL.

Consider it'll take improvement on another level.

if transhumanism doesn't do it then then evolution will.

people need to fucking realize that shit changes.

Sounds right to me.

To an extent.
It is not your effort and willpower which is improving you.

It is a powerup like carrying a gun, or wearing smart glasses (which don't make YOU smarter)

It is an improvement, but being that the self was not involved in the improvement beyond having it done, I hesitate to call it self improvment.
