Abstract.
The monograph under review, “The Line: AI and the Future of Personhood” by J. Boyle, addresses the issue of the moral, legal, and anthropological boundaries of personhood in the context of the rapid development of artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and ongoing debates surrounding non-human subjects. The author examines the criteria on which culture and law draw a distinction between a person and a non-person, a subject and an object, and among humans, animals, machines, and hybrid biotechnological entities. The book is of interest to researchers in philosophical anthropology, AI ethics, philosophy of law, bioethics, and contemporary culture.
