Synthetic Worlds and the Sovereign Code: Robotic Consciousness and the Crisis of Posthuman Value.
This article investigates the ontological and ethical disjunctions introduced by robotic and AI-driven agents in the context of posthumanism. Drawing on philosophical, literary, and speculative texts, it argues that contemporary robotics and machine learning systems inaugurate not only a technologic...

Drawing on philosophical, literary, and speculative texts, it argues that contemporary robotics and machine learning systems inaugurate not only a technological rupture but a metaphysical crisis concerning personhood, simulation, and value. Grounded mainly in the theories of Jean Baudrillard, Kathrine Hayles, Nick Bostrom, Rosi Braidotti and Donna Haraway, the article examines how artificial minds challenge inherited anthropocentric narratives and disrupt classical conceptions of autonomy and responsibility. Through this inquiry, the article proposes a novel framework of "synthetic sovereignty", positing that agency in posthuman futures will depend not on consciousness per se, but on a capacity to modify, interrupt, and rewrite the rules of encoded worlds. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Caietele Echinox is the property of Echinox Cultural Foundation and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
