Apparently 3rd-wave cybernetics has a lot to do with the location of the body.
Also approaching true artificial intelligence.

2-wave cybernetics had a lot to do with autopoiesis and self reflexivity?

Thoughts?

Has anyone read Donna Harraway's Cyborg Manifesto? l:cthulhu::smoker:

A little context goes a long way. Care to provide your own thoughts?

Cybernetics being the relationship between humans and machines, which started with the industrial revolution related to steam engines, and trains. Well, I guess that would be considered 1st-wave cybernetics, unless you want to include the first humans using basic objects to craft tools out of sticks and stones.

I believe that we are in fact artifacts of the first super-intelligence that killed itself and we are its thoughts and feelings.

Or maybe we're in a simulation already. *Shrugs*

I do believe sentient beings have free will though and things aren't predetermined or "destiny."
