"Cyborg" is based on the technical replacement, enhancement, or extension of the body, and "body" is a key dimension of its image that cannot be ignored. Among the many "cyborg" images in contemporary Chinese science fiction literature, the "miniature" conception of body structures, related to the "miniaturization" orientation of cognition and technological development, implies a desire to seek breakthroughs in material boundaries, forming a unique aesthetic sense of "mutuality" with the whole body. The "miniaturization" of the body implies a re-examination of human values and aesthetics. In the subsequent stages, the process of human-computer adaptation has individual differences due to differences in technical complexity and understanding of the relationship between mind and body, and this variation is reflected in hierarchy and diversity of the "symbiosis" process. In the final stage, the transformation of the body leads to a change in identity, and t the concept of "human" changes dynamically in the "new human-old human" divide resulting from the integration or non-integration of technology, while the "swarm intelligence" setting is an experimental presentation of the shifting relationship between the individual and the collective.
