9.0 CONCLUSION
Congratulations, you are nearing completion of the course. For a review, see the link under Assignments.
We hope your time here was stimulating and productive. Our main objective has been to use philosophical and scientific means to come to understand more clearly the complexities of being human. We paid special attention to the fact that our identities are seeming to become increasingly intertwined with other intelligences, both animal and artificial. Let us know how we did by posting responses in the Facebook group. We'll read your comments carefully and use them to improve future editions of the course.
