摘要：
This article discusses - by way of Cartesian dualism - the metaphysical aspects of prospective narratives regarding Artificial Intelligence. Two ideas permeate the social imaginary regarding digital technologies and the role they play in culture and their consequences in the social world: the first notion is one where, in the near future of utopic (or dystopic) modernity, machines will become progressively "intelligent" for the betterment (or domination) of human beings. According to the second, human bodies are natural "machines", and thus capable of improvement or transcendence by means of technology.
