This is a key issue for contemporary thinking and cultures; and for the same reason, a very complex one. Thus, I would contrast those remarks with Foucault's "Archaeology of Knowledge", and more particularly, with its introduction
For Deleuze, as for Foucault, “machines are social before being technical.” The plough, the rifle, and the prison emerge not from fated progress, but from the contingent needs of societies. For all “there is a human technology which exists before a material technology” (1986, 39)pic.twitter.com/08Ifak57cX
