What Makes Us Human? What Can Turn Us Into Machines? If We Can Become Machines, Can a Machine Become Human? These are the questions explored by Adaptér in its latest exhibition, showcasing works by both Hungarian and international artists on this fascinating theme. The concept of cyborg existence can be interpreted in many ways. Does wearing glasses make us part machine? Where do we draw the line when deviating from our biological origins? If we reach the capability to reproduce any human organ, would a person fully "replaced" by artificial parts still remain human? The technological boom of recent years and the massive advancements in artificial intelligence raise profound questions: what qualities must a machine possess for us to consider it human? What happens when it begins to respond to our emotions?
The interactive exhibition Machines as Humans as Machines will be on display at Adaptér from December 28, 2024, to February 1, 2025.
