“…As the definition of AI shifts to more agile, adaptable systems pervasive in every facet of healthcare delivery and patient experience, here is an opportunity to ask “what is an intelligent machine?” and “what is a human (Herbrechter, 2013). ” While computational intelligence provides an intersubjectivity representation of patient status or nurse decision‐making during clinical events, there are still unexplored components of equity, transparency in AI use, and trust among disenfranchised groups (Benjamin, 2020; Jordan et al, 2023).…”

When to err is inhuman: An examination of the influence of artificial intelligence‐driven nursing care on patient safety

2023

Artificial intelligence, as a nonhuman entity, is increasingly used to inform, direct, or supplant nursing care and clinical decision‐making. The boundaries between human‐ and nonhuman‐driven nursing care are blurred with the advent of sensors, wearables, camera devices, and humanoid robots at such an accelerated pace that the critical evaluation of its influence on patient safety has not been fully assessed. Since the pivotal release of To Err is Human, patient safety is being challenged by the dynamic healthcare environment like never before, with nursing at a critical juncture to steer the course of artificial intelligence integration in clinical decision‐making. This paper presents an overview of artificial intelligence and its application in healthcare and highlights the implications which affect nursing as a profession, including perspectives on nursing education and training recommendations. The legal and policy challenges which emerge when artificial intelligence influences the risk of clinical errors and safety issues are discussed.

Posthumanist stylistics

I present a posthumanist approach to literary interpretation using stylistic analysis. It is posthumanist since i) digital cameras/audio-video resources and editing applications prompt multimodal readings of literary works unlikely from human intuition alone; ii) anthropocentrism in literary texts is defamiliarised. I highlight how stylistic analysis can be used productively for developing multimodal creativity in posthumanist reading by motivating audio-video edits and effects. I model using Anne Brontë’s poem ‘Home’ (1846). When read only with intuition, ‘Home’ communicates young Brontë’s yearning for her family home. In contrast, this article has a non-intuitive digital multimodal realisation of this poem where a young Californian stuck in London because of pandemic (Covid-19) travel restrictions yearns for her home state in the aftermath of wildfires linked to anthropogenic climate change. This posthumanist transformative reading, flagging the negative repercussions of humans for their planetary home, defamiliarises the poem’s anthropocentric normality. Importantly, I show how stylistic analysis of ‘Home’ motivates creative use of audio-visual edits and effects in the posthumanist multimodal reading. The article makes contrast with standard interpretive practice in stylistics (‘humanist stylistics’). It also reflects on the value of posthumanist stylistics for extending students’ creative thinking in an educational context.

“…Сопоставление западной (англо-американской [32]) и русской кибернетической мысли делает очевидным разрыв на уровне различного метафизического фундамента -тем неуловимым, что проявляется в той или иной эпистемологии. Русская кибернетическая мысль примечательна тем, что (предсказуемым для простого русского человека образом) она оказывается «неспособной» произвести тотальную редукцию человека до гидравлической системы, подвластной буквальному воздействию внешних технологических и методологических рычагов.…”

On Transhumanization of Mind in Russia and the West

In the proposed article we will touch on the problem of transhumanization of culture in view of what could be named the transhumanization of language and mind. Under the latter we understand the progressive involution of language as a semantic field, a field of abstract 'excessiveness' of culture as it is inscribed in forms of thought and interpersonal interaction. Following the cybernetic imperative, the transhumanization of language and, consequently, of mind and subjectivity, reduces the language to a means of transmission of information, while cutting all the 'unnecessary' off it and making the question regarding the essence of subjectivity extremely acute and relevant. A comparative epistemological analysis of Russian and Western cybernetics and their corresponding trajectories of cultural transhumanization, elicits different nature and essence of these two ontologemes, which allows us to draw more complex conclusions concerning the transhumanistic reality on opposite sides of the civilizational barricades. Ontologically bridging between the pre-Revolutionary philosophy of Russian self-determination, Russian cosmism and Russian cybernetics allows us to understand why transhumanism has not been invented in Russia and cannot become its new Idea.
