6. Starborn Archives: Cyborgs, Synthetics, and Machine Intelligence

What happens when the intelligence a civilization creates becomes a life of its own?

Cyborgs, Synthetics, and Machine Intelligence explores the possibilities of artificial and hybrid life across the Starborn Archives: biomechanical civilizations, advanced AI collectives, cybernetic beings, and fully synthetic species.

Their origins, evolution, technologies, philosophies, and attributed agendas reveal different ways to imagine consciousness beyond biology. Relationships with other races open questions about autonomy, responsibility, and the meaning of creation.

Mark A. Radler brings these forms together at the boundary between intelligence as a tool and intelligence as a life. The future of the machines is also a question about those who make them.
