5.0 out of 5 stars
An intriguing collection,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Machines That Become Us: The Social Context of Personal Communication Technology (Hardcover)
Social critics and artificial intelligence experts have predicted physical and emotional links between robot and human for decades, also sharing fears of a dehumanized future as a result. Katz gathers articles that address these concepts, considering if computer anxiety is creating more problems than it causes and exploring connections between people and their personal communication devices. Machines That Become Us considers the advancing age of cyber-technology and robotics, considering everything from personal digital assistants and mobile phones to wearable computers, implants, and various mobile technologies. An intriguing collection is created which goes beyond the usual concept of the human/robot meld to consider how everyday computer-driven devices are changing our lives.
