People wear glasses. They wear hearing aids that are really little computers. They wear pacemakers. They have their intestines modified.

We’ve seized control of evolution ourselves without really quite being conscious of it. It’s no longer the environment that affects change in the human body, it’s our minds, it’s our concepts, our technology that are doing that.
