It's Been a Minute · Peptides & the pursuit of the "perfect" body · 9 Jan 2026 podcast

They see technology not just as a way to make their human lives more efficient, but actually as a way to transcend the limitations of the human body to sort of merge with the machine and become more than our, you know, fleshy selves.

I think this might be an opportunity to think about for some of the more radical peptide users, which to be clear is not all of them.

Plenty of people are just looking for the efficiency or the weight loss benefits or whatever.

But there are some folks like one of the women I interviewed who are more on the quote unquote transhumanist side of things where they see technology not just as a way to make their

human lives more efficient, but actually as a way to transcend the limitations of the human body to sort of merge with the machine and become more than our, you know, fleshy selves.

So this woman, Brooke Bowman, I interviewed, she told me she actually had an RFID chip, microchip, implanted in her hand at a human augmentation dance party so that theoretically when someone moved their phone near her hand, they could scan her telegram profile and then message her.

Unfortunately, the dance party chip wasn't

implanted too deep, so it does not work.

shows the sort of more radical side of this Silicon Valley biohacking thinking where it crosses over to not just let me use this technology as a tool, but I am going to merge with the machine and together we are going to become more than human, right?

And so I think especially with AI also taking over Silicon Valley and the world, people are sort of thinking

Maybe it is possible to build technologies that are smarter than we are, that are more powerful than we are.

And I think that has increased interest in these biohacking trends as well.

Yeah, I mean, I'm definitely somewhat of two minds about it because I don't want to romanticize friction for its own sake.

Like, you know, I'm nearsighted.

I have contact lenses.

I'm imagining a world before my contact lenses when I couldn't see anything.

And people might just say, you know, the friction of having to get really close to that sign to see it, you know?

So I am very grateful for many of the medical technologies that have improved my life.

But I do think that there is a question of what are you trading off?

We can talk about a Zempik, right?
