Abstract

This article analyzes how the cyborg metaphor, proposed by Donna Haraway, can be articulated with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in biology education to overcome traditional dualisms, promoting more integrated pedagogical practices in the context of the Anthropocene. A qualitative methodology of theoretical-conceptual analysis was adopted, based on a literature review and practical exemplification through interactive narratives and speculative images generated by AI. The analyzed data demonstrate that AI, as a pedagogical resource, expands the possibilities for speculative fabulation, hybridity, and critical reflection. It is concluded that the integration of AI fosters an epistemological transformation in biology education, enhancing the development of critical subjects prepared to face contemporary ethical and ecological challenges.
