But They Said AI Would Replace You By Now

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dH_UvWmvny0 Fortunately, most human powered jobs haven't been replaced yet.

In the near future, there might have to be a set of laws to protect and preserve natural humanity.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Laws_of_Robotics "The rules were introduced in his 1942 short story "Runaround" (included in the 1950 collection I, Robot), although similar restrictions had been implied in earlier stories."

While some people might want to have various enhancements, others might want to become total cyborgs. However, some corporations might want to secretly clone and grow a person into a corporate obedient cyborg. Thus, the resulting humanoid would be corporate property. This could result into a new type of slavery. Then, some robots or androids while being mostly synthetic, might also be composed with some human stem cells. Artificial or totally synthetic humanoids might be much less controversial, but still potentially dangerous to natural life forms.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlestar_Galactica#Battlestar_Galactica_(1978-1979)

"In a distant star system, the Twelve Colonies of Mankind were reaching the end of a thousand-year war with the Cylons, warrior robots created by a reptilian race that expired long ago, presumably destroyed by their own creations. Humanity was ultimately defeated in a sneak attack on the colonies by the Cylons, carried out with the help of a human traitor, Baltar. Protected by the last surviving capital warship, a battlestar named Galactica, the survivors fled in available ships. The Commander of the Galactica, Adama, led this "rag-tag fugitive fleet" of 220 ships in search of a new home." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlestar_Galactica_(1978_TV_series)#Series_overview

A little over a decade after AS WE MAY THINK was published, the movie Forbidden_Planet was released. Although no direct reference to 3D printed matter technology is made, a subterranean machine and or supercomputer is able to manufacture monsters from the_Id & just about anything else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbidden_Planet#Plot

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_(American_TV_series) 2014 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2693776 , https://www.youtube.com/user/CBSINTELLIGENCE2013/videos

"Gabriel Vaughn is a high-tech intelligence operative enhanced with a super-computer microchip in his brain. With this implant, Gabriel is the first human ever to be connected directly into the globalized information grid." 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_(American_TV_series)#Plot

https://intelligencetvcbs.fandom.com/wiki/Season_One

https://itunes.apple.com/us/tv-season/intelligence-season-1/id814793185

The character, Gabriel Vaughn wasn't crippled, he was just enhanced with a digital interface implant. 

That wasn't the case with The_Six_Million_Dollar_Man. 1973 After barely surviving from a crash from a Lifting_body vehicle, Steve_Austin was rebuilt into a Cyborg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Six_Million_Dollar_Man#Plot , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Six_Million_Dollar_Man#Steve_Austin's_bionics

There is the very low budget TV movie, Exo-Man from 1977 about a crippled man in a strong suit. The movie was never developed into a TV series.

M.A.N.T.I.S. did become a TV series, albeit for just one season. It was on a much higher budget than Exo-Man. 

Of course when the Iron_Man movies went into production, it was always on a big budget.

Eventually a synthetic artificial_limb could be developed. While it would be nice to have the technology to grow a new limb, replacing lost limbs with synthetic living material may happen first.

{Jack_E._Steele-"his main focus was on bionics, a term he coined in 1958. The term was officially used in 1960 as the title of a three-day symposium in September of that year.

His work on bionics, and the USAF research on cyborgs, caught the attention of SF writer and aviation expert Martin Caidin, whose 1972 book Cyborg makes explicit reference to then-Major Jack Steele. The book formed the basis of the TV series The_Six_Million_Dollar_Man (and spinoff The Bionic Woman), which popularized, if somewhat inaccurately, the term bionics. (Dr Steele's original meaning was the study of biological organisms to find solutions to engineering problems, a field now also known as biomimetics.)  also see http://amal.net/?tag=biometrics

After retiring from the Air_Force, Dr. Steele continued to practice medicine with a focus on psychiatry, and served as Medical Director of the Comprehensive Drug Dependency Treatment Program at the Dayton Mental Health Center, where he worked for 20 years until retirement. Dr. Steele died in Dayton, Ohio on 19 January 2009 after a protracted illness."} http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_E._Steele
