Humans are rather unique amongst civilized species: Unlike others, which merely use their technology at their own leisure, humans are, in a sense, bound together with our earliest inventions like language, approaching the nature of a cyborg of sorts
I have been wondering, how exactly does this relate to our status amongst civilized species (that status being that of the most advanced). Is it a prerequisite of high technology, an inevitable symptom thereof, or something unrelated to our advancement? Or is the reality somewhere in-between these options?

they could become civilized on their own accords in a relatively short amount of time unlike most other earth animals. they could also be uplifted pretty easily compared to all the other animals
I donāt think all humans are cyborg. From what I recall, a cyborg is a human (or a sapient individual in Thriveās case) whose body is partially technological. For instance, if you have a robotic leg or arm, then you are a cyborg. If you donāt, youāre just a normal human. If you have a neural implant, you are a cyborg. If you donāt, youāre not.
When I saw this thread, I could not believe that this was serious and not a joke.
We are literally the only civilized species we know of. When you have a sample size of 1 you canāt infer anything about the general nature of things from that.
Iām 80% sure that cats are too. They literally manipulated humans for generations to get us to feed and house them for free, even dogs had a use when we were taming them, cats just showed up and demanded food and shelter and we were like, āitās cute, itās fluffy, I will never let anything hurt it as long as I live.ā
