Lecture 8 - N. Katherine Hayles and Artificial Life
Manage episode 366868157 series 3486512
In the last lecture we explored how Hayles assessed the impact of the Macy Conferences on the developments of Artificial Intelligence. Here I will proceed to explain Hayles’ recounting of how cybernetics began to adopt more reflexive models of cognition. I will look at what she has to individually say about the second and thirds waves of cybernetics and conclude with a discussion on Hayles’ claim that a central tenet of the posthuman self-understanding is virtual embodiment.
