In particular, I argue that critical posthumanist sensibilities for social robotics can offer generative accounts for making sense of the relation among, between, and with humans and social robots. Unpacking how arguments separating humans and robots related to origin-genesis-collapse when considering critical posthumanist insights on anthropogenesis, biogenesis, and technogenesis, I explore the value of a critical posthumanist approach in social robotics. A critical posthumanism for social robotics displaces dichotomous nature-culture or natural-artificial binaries and instead embraces an entangled view of relationality. This essay starts to work toward realizing posthumanism's critical sensibilities that take into account the scalar impact of the planetary meta-condition of the Anthropocene on humans, robots, and their relations. 收起
