Posthumanism portrays technology as an "other" to be embraced, and consequently has lost sight of the basic realities of the human/technological boundary Technology becomes a superior model of information processing to which humans aspire. Posthuman Suffering and the Technological Embrace contends that we do not embrace technology to expand and augment our selves, we embrace technology so that it may embrace us. Finally and most important, the posthuman view reconceptualizes the human being to be made more compatible with computerized systems or possible artificial intelligences.
