<Abstract>

This study aims to examine the fundamental problem of ‘technical image’ and artificial intelligence through a critical interpretation of the concept of ‘program’ by Vilem Flusser. The program is the principle of operating the device, and the ultimate goal of the device is automation. In this process, humans are excluded. Flusser argues that it must produce ‘improbable’ information in order to uphold human intentions against the program. This calculated information should be called a postgram. The program is, namely, a pro-gram, it does not exist yet, but it has to be a pair with postgram because it will be produced anyway. In that sense, Flusser did not see the postgram embedded in the program. Without a postgram, a program can never produce its ‘original’ goal, ‘improbable’, ‘scheduled’. After all, the real program is postgram.

Key words : Machine, Apparatus, Program, Postgram, Artificial intelligence, Vilem Flusser
