I expect to see cyborgs and artificial life before I kick the bucket. Cyborgs don't seem that far off, and with the pace of advancements in our knowledge and abilities, unless we kill ourselves first we'll be seeing amazing things before too long. There are already many amazing things going on.

Personally, I think the whole notion of 'mind' and 'consciousness' are a little silly.
