The works of Philip K. Dick act as an ideal template for readers to explore what it means to be human in a technologically dominated world. Dick's emphasis on the usage of androids and artificial intelligence as literary monsters allows for a posthuman reading of the traditional literary monster, notably in how their uncanny nature and behavior helps reveal the synthetic tendencies of humanity. In Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, "Imposter," and "I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon," each narrative incorporates artificial intelligence and androids acting as others to reveal the machine-like qualities of Dick's human characters. This approach ultimately reveals Dick's greater commentary on the nature of humanity's tendencies to fall into machinelike patterns and expectations within the historical world. By asking questions of what it means to be human through posthuman monsters, Dick challenges the traditional definition of what it means to be both human and alive.
