GERMAIN DROOGENBROODT

 


 

Petrified

 

At the town square

stands the statue

of a war hero.

He looks ahead

as if he looks to the future

as if he looks for a time without wars

a time of worldwide peace

—but his eyes are petrified.

 

Cogito Ergo Sum

 

For the first time in human history,

technologies suggest us, advise us, give us orders..

Eric Sadin

Socrates claimed

that one thinks first, then lives

Descartes confirmed it centuries later:

"I think, so I am".

But if artificial intelligence

will think for us, will advise us,

will tell us what to do

will we then still be humans or robots?
