claim:technology-should-be-understood-as-a-partner-in-a-rich-relationship-with-humans-not-merely-a-toolTechnology should be understood as a partner in a rich relationship with humans, not merely a tool.
Core normative position: SCI loops apply equally to biological, technological, and hybrid systems; neither should be subordinate.
