Technology Reflects, Amplifies, and Distorts Humanity
Definition: Psychic Prosthesis, Not Prophet Technology is neither savior nor demon. It is an extension of human intentionality—our intellect, our fear, our appetite for control. It is not neutral; it encodes worldviews. Every device is a philosophy in physical form, a condensed ethicsrendered executable. Your smartphone is Descartes in your pocket: disembodied, hyper-rational, obsessed with quantifying thought.
This is the age of exo-consciousness—our thinking no longer confined to skulls, but distributed across networks, servers, and platforms. We externalize memory (Google), outsource social signaling (Instagram), and simulate intimacy (chatbots). These prostheses reshape not just how we act, but how we are. The tool becomes habitat. And habitat shapes organism.
