Thinking Monstrosity in Western and Global Literatures and Creative Media attempts to explain humanity's ambivalence toward non-human and hybrid intelligence through representations of thinking monstrosity across diverse genres, cultures, and historical contexts. It investigates how the idea of monstrosity informs our shifting perceptions of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and brain-computer interfaces.
This study interrogates cross-cultural dynamics between human and non-human intelligences, addressing ontological, epistemological, aesthetic, and ethical dilemmas. It considers non-human entities capable of cognition and humans with artificially or magically altered cognitive functions, challenging assumptions about consciousness and identity. A timely intervention in the debates about intelligence's future, this book bridges past and present to reveal the dynamics shaping our attitudes toward intelligence beyond traditional human boundaries. By tracing the genealogy of thinking monstrosity, it offers crucial insights into how historical anxieties continue to inform contemporary responses to technological advancement and cognitive transcendence.外文書商品之書封,為出版社提供之樣本。實際出貨商品,以出版社所提供之現有版本為主。部份書籍,因出版社供應狀況特殊,匯率將依實際狀況做調整。
