  • AI as an Assemblage: Bio argues AI is an interconnected network of materials and histories, not just tech. Humans and machines co-create AI, challenging the idea of unilateral authorship. Draws on philosophical concepts (Ship of Theseus, Simondon, Deleuze) to frame identity and agency as fluid processes.

  • Intelligence Beyond Human: Bio asserts that intelligence isn’t solely human; it's a flow involving both humans and non-humans. Critiques 'artificial intelligence' terminology, emphasizing that nature itself is inherently creative, blurring the natural/artificial divide. References biological examples like brittle stars to support this perspective.

  • Cyber Marinage and Ethical Disruption: Bio introduces 'cyber marinage' likening AI's potential to historical escapes from oppression, suggesting it may disrupt normative societal structures. Distinguishes ethics from morality, proposing AI as a force for unsettling moral settlements during crises. Discusses the importance of ethical disruptions in confronting societal challenges.<p>- <b>AI as an Assemblage</b>: Bio argues AI is an interconnected network of materials and histories, not just tech.
