Gaia as Cyborg

Bruce Clarke

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

In light of James Lovelock's suggestion in his latest book Novacene: The Coming Age of Hyperintelligence (MIT Press, 2019) of a "cyborg" solution to the climate crisis—by which autonomous and superintelligent AIs will recognize and act effectively on their own need, at least at first, for Gaia's air conditioning—it is an interesting moment to recall a previous treatment of Gaia as cyborg, in Donna Haraway's foreword to The Cyborg Handbook, "Cyborgs and Symbionts."
