Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A vital collection. The Networked Self series has led the way in opening up complex issues of identity and selfhood in our contemporary moment. This book brings us right to the critical forefront, by tackling questions of bots, cyborgs, VR and artificial intelligence with a brilliant group of scholars."-Kate Crawford, Distinguished Research Professor, New York University, and co-founder of the AI Now Institute

"This collection is at its best where it offers the reader resources with which to engage the trope of the ‘networked self’ in ways that question received technological narratives. To do so involves attending to the real consequences of digitally-enabled artifacts and infrastructures, while challenging their pervasive and ongoing mystification." -Lucy Suchman, Lancaster University, UK

Reseña del editor:

Every new technology invites its own sets of hopes and fears, and raises as many questions as it answers revolving around the same theme: Will technology fundamentally alter the essence of what it means to be human? This volume draws inspiration from the work of the many luminaries who approach augmented, alternative forms of intelligence and consciousness. Scholars contribute their thoughts on how human augmentic technologies and artificial or sentient forms of intelligence can be used to enable, reimagine, and reorganize how we understand our selves, how we conceive the meaning of "human", and how we define meaning in our lives.
