The problem with analysing the world through the movies is that it makes 2 massive errors - the first well its a movie and second future is only speculation.

If we want to be historically accurate then we have to accept that technology liberates every single human being on the planet. It eliminated slavery by far and provides better standard of living.

In all likelihood humans will become cyborgs. Cyborgs will not become humans. We are changing our own physiology. Not the other way around. We put pace makers, chips in the brain, articificial organs. This is how one day we will be hard to distinguish someone with original or extra parts. The transition will be smooth as it is today with most people you see walking around you with different kinds of prosthetic parts.

In respect to building a human being from scratch we are still in the ASIMO era. We are stuck. If far too complicated to copy a spontaneouly generated orderly being such as a human. Rathr we can take what works and improve what we already have.
