Eve

In this course
Eve appears here as a classical theological reference point for debates about human origins and the boundaries of the human category itself. The citation suggests the readings use Eve—and Genesis creation narratives more broadly—to historically ground questions about how Western thought has classified and categorized beings, particularly when encountering the "other" (Mesoamerican peoples, and implicitly, artificial intelligences). In a course on AI and cybernetics, Eve functions as an anchor for understanding how religious anthropology has shaped modern distinctions between natural and artificial creation.
Background
Eve is a figure from the Book of Genesis in the Old Testament. According to the origin story of the Abrahamic religions, she was the first woman to be created by God. Eve is known also as Adam's wife.
