Resumo: | This essay ponders on the thorny issue of including artificial beings under the category of "citizen." The increasing humanization of the artificial being, it suggests, prevents us from seeing and treating the machine as a being.

Conversely, as more and more humans are cyborged, through transplants, implants, and prostheses, resulting in an erasure of their "core" humanity, then what is the difference between such a cyborged human with human rights and an artificial being? |
