1、www.XiYuS锡育软件I would like to tell you all that you are all actually cyborgs,but not the cyborgs that you think.我想告诉你们大家 你们其实都是半机器人,不是你们想象的那种半机器人。00:12Youre not RoboCop,and youre not Terminator,but yourecyborgs every time you look at a computer screen or use oneof your cell phone devices.你们不是机器战警,也不是
2、魔鬼终结者,但是你每次看着电脑屏幕 或者使用手机时你就是个半机器人。00:20So whats a good definition for cyborg?所以什么是半机器人的定义呢？00:28Well,traditional definition is an organism to whichexogenous components have been added for the purposeof adapting to new environments.传统的定义是一个生物体“为了适应环境而被 加入外源成分。”00:30That came from a 1960 paper on spac

12、s and machines-andconsiders how our values and culture are being shaped by living lives increasingly mediated byhigh technology.安柏.凯斯Amber Case说技术正在将我们进化成一种盯着荧屏，点击按钮的新新人类。我们现在依靠“外部大脑”(例如手机和计算机)来交流，记忆，甚至生活在第二人生。但是这些机器会最终把我们联系在一起还是征服我们呢?凯斯Case对我们自身半机器人化提供了出人意料的见解。What does the inside of your computer
