The Robot Narrative in Machines Like Me from the Perspective of New Materialism

Machines Like Me focuses on the contradictions and the nature of robots after their intervention in human life, as well as the subtle changes in the relationship between humans and machines. Robots have shifted from static objects to active actants, intervening in human life. They have changed from objects to subjects, forming a relationship of the mutual subject with humans, jointly constituting a moral actant, and participating in the construction of a moral subject. New materialism breaks through the limitations of traditional subjectivity and epistemology, re-examining the relationship between humans and machines, and revealing the technological ethics and political governance issues behind it. The in-depth analysis of the relationship between humans and machines helps to deepen the understanding of the symbiosis of humans and machines, and provides important insights into technological ethics and political governance.
