Exactly. We're already headed down that road.

If someone came up with artificial vision for the blind (like Jordy in Star Trek) would we prohibit it or embrace it?

If someone came up with a natural looking artificial hand for people who had lost a limb (like Luke in Star Wars) would prohibit it or embrace it?

Obviously we would embrace it.

The question becomes: would we allow the replacement of healthy body parts with artificial ones to "upgrade" them? Sight, hearing, smell. We'll be able to significantly improve them with implants in the future. But should we?

Yes, but there is a difference between devices to restore bodily function as it was created, and on the other hand, fundamentally changing the body into a different version of God’s creation - part man and part sentient AI. Ask yourself will the soul remain in such a being or will it depart? Of course, the engineers must be atheists so they could care less. Just look at what they have already accomplished with the vax experiment. What could go wrong with this venture?
