Abstract

This article investigates new ethnography on AI development relating to imaginaries of technoscientific forms of immortality. As a Think Piece in Analytics, it engages in a somewhat experimental comparative endeavor as I set concepts from the ethnographic field of transhumanism in a comparative relation to concepts developed in the anthropological theory of Christianity, mainly Dumont’s concept of the ‘individual-in-the-world’. I argue that through such a comparison we can understand recently developed ideas about the (technologically) immortal human being in a new light. The article points to how technoscientific immortality echoes core cultural themes, but it also considers a major difference in the perception of the social. When death is made redundant, the question of how sociality is reproduced moves center stage.

本文研究了人工智能发展的新人种学，涉及对不朽的技术科学形式的想象。作为《分析学》的一篇思考文章，我将超人类主义人种学领域的概念与基督教人类学理论中发展起来的概念进行了比较，主要是杜蒙的“世界中的个人”概念，这篇文章进行了一些实验性的比较。我认为，通过这样的比较，我们可以从一个新的角度来理解最近发展起来的关于(技术上)不朽的人类的想法。这篇文章指出了技术科学上的不朽如何与核心文化主题相呼应，但它也考虑了对社会的看法的主要差异。当死亡变得多余时，社会性如何再生产的问题就成为了焦点。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
