Oh, yeah. You've got isolated examples like Tibetans (high altitude), Lactose tolerance (sans most of Asia), and those clam divers who can hold their breath for 20 minutes (too lazy to look it up). But overall we're seeing changes mostly related to diet, disease (HIV immunity, etc.) and reproduction (earlier menarch) .

yes

both socially and physically. the changes are just much slower than they used to be, and also since we witness them in real time it is difficult to gauge. it is something more that our descendants will speak of

The are some studies that suggest that the average modern human brain is shrinking.

Yeah we're becoming specialists rather than generalists.

intelligence wise i would say humans are devolving

Which is a bad thing.

In a mass extinction event, specialists die. Generalists survive.

we are always evolving, for good or for bad. the creatures that survive are just the lucky ones and many will just die off.

Fun Fact: Your current generation has evolved to grow a horn in the back of their heads. This is a result of looking down on phones too much.

Yeah, humans are learning to lie better and obfuscate the truth even in science

Some people born in the past twenty years or so are lacking certain tendons and ligaments in the arm and wrist. Or at least a scientific magazine I read in the 2010s claimed such. I did not get to see if there was an actual study done or if it was like how it is in a number of those print media publications, misinformation and/or communist propaganda.

Unfortunately I no longer have that copy of I want to say Discover and all I remember is that the cover had something vaguely resembling ♥♥♥♥ erectus on the cover. And that it was orange. A whole lotta orange. Would be fitting given that it's pumpkin spice season.

Of course we're still evolving.

We're currently on an evolutionary collision course with the blobs in Wall-E

we are evolving

ehhh I don't think so, not much biologically anymore, unless you count "abnormalities", lol

AI (cyborgs, drones, bots...) is our next stages in our evolution.
