Hyper-Communicating Space of Machines the New Subject of Smart Cities: Robot-Human

Abstract

Throughout its historical development, technology has brought many positive and negative innovations to daily practices and rational human. Technology, which facilitates everyday practices, has been criticized from the very beginning for the fact that mechanization and automation instrumentalize human rational ability. As the objects become smart and have communication skills with the developing technology, the surrender of the rational intelligence to the instrumental rationality also increases. The target of this article is to evaluate the negative consequences caused and possible by the fact that human intellectual ability is confronted with excessive automation through smart cities designed with the products of technology and their applications, by using the perspectives of technological determinist thinkers and critical theory. The city, which has become smart with the internet of things and artificial intelligence technologies, harmonizes human's intellectual ability with artificial intelligence. This development brings human closer to robots by increasing the interaction and communication between robots and smart machines, in which certain functions of the human intelligence are adapted. The study aims to discuss the possibility that robots and smart machines, which look like humans every day, can make human resemble themselves with their artificial intelligence.
