This construction of an identity forces the creator to face the things that seem natural. Technology that is not wholly interactive can also have some effect on the user. A shaving razor will change the user's appearance. A refrigerator will make a person think differently about their dietary patterns. It could be argued that this change from interacting with technology is responsible for humans' evolutionary development.
Humans tend to do anything that is possible.
In Chromosome 6, a scientist alters the genes of a bonobo to reduce the transplant incompatibility. When the novel was written, it was not yet possible to do the genetic alterations that were necessary, but it is quickly becoming possible. The world's first litter of cloned pigs is raising hopes that pigs might soon serve as organ donors for humans. These are just some of the ways that technology changes the user. There are and will be many more to come.
