In Katherine Hayles' terms, "posthuman" is a state where the human seamlessly articulate with intelligent machines and approaches his or her body as a prosthesis (Hayles, 1999). This perspective is also close to Rosi Braidotti's critical posthumanism and her awareness of being part of the Anthropocene (Braidotti, 2013). The integral operation of this system built out of carbon-based organic components and silicon-based electronic components has become one of the challenges of medicine and social theory that marks the posthuman era (Hayles, 1999, Malabou 2008 [2004], Braidotti (2013)). The fact that technologies – or to be more precise, interaction between carbon-based organic components and silicon-based electronic components – will influence our behavior even more in the future calls for the examination of information flow and control strategies within such a system. By extension, this discursive space opens up to the reconsideration of how larger information systems can be intelligent. | In Katherine Hayles' terms, "posthuman" is a state where the human seamlessly articulate with intelligent machines and approaches his or her body as a prosthesis (Hayles, 1999).
