\\nDavid Bates\, in conversation with Stefanos Geroulano and Joa nna Stalnaker
\nWe imagine that we are both in control of a
nd controlled by our bodies—autonomous and yet automatic. This entanglemen
t\, according to David W. Bates\, emerged in the seventeenth century when
humans first built and compared themselves with machines. Reading varied t
hinkers from Descartes to Kant to Turing\, Bates reveals how time and time
again technological developments offered new ways to imagine how the body
’s automaticity worked alongside the mind’s autonomy. Tracing these evolvi
ng lines of thought\, David Bates discusses his new book\, An Artifici
al History of Natural Intelligence\, which offers a new theorization
of the human as a being that is dependent on technology and produces itsel
f as an artificial automaton without a natural\, outside origin.
\nDavid Bates is Professor of Rhetoric at the University of C
alifornia Berkeley. His research focuses on the history of legal and polit
ical ideas\, and the relationship between technology\, science\, and the h
istory of human cognition.
