I'm saying that our own evolution is now directly in our hands. At the current rate of change, much less a further acceleration, what we'll be able to do to ourselves engineering wise in just the next 50 years will be dramatic.

Normal evolution is over for humans. We will self-evolve by action and choice.

In 1,000 year - whatever we are at that point, we will not be human as we recognize the term today. Whether it's a super mutant form, still organic and engineered to the moon; or cyborg in shell, with a soft organic inside; or stored digitally in organic matter; or any variation there of. There are a lot of possibilities, the one with zero chance of being around in 1,000 is the form we currently take on.
