More about the book
Human hubris and anthropocentrism are identified as key factors driving the planet toward crisis. N. Katherine Hayles argues for a re-evaluation of our understanding of agency and decision-making to effectively address environmental challenges. She introduces an integrated cognitive framework (ICF) that encompasses humans, nonhuman lifeforms, and artificial intelligence. Through case studies on gene editing, autopoiesis, and AI, the book examines the interplay of biological and technological systems, advocating for a positive path forward that benefits both humanity and the broader ecosystem.
