“This article is a translation of a 1966 text by Evald Ilyenkov, Anatoliy Arsen′ev and Vasily Davydov on the science of cybernetics and the belief of many cyberneticians that they can create a “thinking machine” by modelling the human brain. The authors argue against such belief while not denying the benefits of cybernetics. The article examines concepts such as “thinking,” “the machine,” and “the human” from the perspective of Marxist philosophy. The authors criticize the ideological influence of cybernetics on Soviet thought about social organisaiton.”
