| contents | <div> <p><em><span>The aim of this research paper is to examine and understand the marginalization of feminism especially Adivasi woman in the acclaimed Netflix film titled Humans in the Loop(2024) directed by Aranya Sahay through the critical lens of Post humanism. Post humanism is a current literary theory making waves in the field of literary criticism. Post humanism emerges out of humanism that posits humans at the centre of everything. From the age of Renaissance to Enlightenment, humanism projected the limitless boundaries of human mind and the ability to question and rationalizes everything. Post humanism looks at these very boundaries and blurring of boundaries through machines, cyborgs, cybernetics and most important artificial intelligence or AI. In the world of ‘post human times’ (Rosi Bradiotti), we are challenged by unmitigated climate disorder, climate change, cloning, mass extinction of species caused by human centered approach and centrality. Post human thought postulates a concept and world that is not different from machines and non human world and that we are perhaps more like others than ourselves. As a human, we are constantly challenged by dominant and subversive power structures that are antithetical to humanism. With the advent of AI and its reach on every aspect of human kind, society and institutions, the boundary between human and non-human and post human is increasingly blurred. </span></em></p> <p><em><span>Aranya Sahay’s Humans in the Loop is a remarkable story of a marginalized indigenous Adivasi woman Nehma who forms the face of the invisible labour force feeding AI captcha images in a mechanical manner. On the one hand Nehma faces the bubble of machine doing routine work and on the other attempts to subvert patriarchy and dominant power structures to support her family after her separation from her partner. Through post humanist lens, the film is multilayered to expose the vulgar differences existing in our society.</span></em></p> </div> |
