An Alternative Philosophical Interpretation Concerning AI

摘要:

对于克服人的不完满来说,技术乃是最直接、最实用的合目的性的工具,具有积极性。只要作为技术来被对待,人工智能就一定会被当成合目的性的工具,这种工具乃是具有超强智能的机器装置,是更高更强的技术作品,能展现出无与伦比的工具优势。不过,从逻辑上讲,人工智能的整体智能水平不可能高于人的整体智能水平。技术是一把不折不扣的双刃剑,其消极性与积极性相伴而行。人工智能技术在“克服”人的不完满的同时又暴露了人的新的不完满,既贬损了人之为人的尊严,也使人对未来充满忧患。人工智能技术越是想要帮助人拥有和赢得“未来”,人就越会在获得某种帮助的同时失去某种能力,甚至失去“未来”。在技术的工具本性里隐藏着异己化的种子。技术的消极性最突出的表现在于,人亲手发展起来的技术转过头来会不由自主地将人的成长带入自我否定的命运之中。人工智能“隐喻”了西西弗斯式的人生——人生的意义和胜利是通过自我否定的方式来呈现的。

Abstract:

As to overcoming the imperfection of human beings, technology is the most direct and useful instrument which can meet the goal, so it is positive in this sense. If AI is treated only as technology, it will be regarded as an instrument which meets some goal, only a machine apparatus with high intelligence and a technological unit at higher and stronger level, which exhibits extraordinary technological advantage. However, logically speaking, the intelligence level of AI is impossible to be higher than that of human beings. Technology is a sword with double blades, with its positivity and negativity. While the technology of AI is “overcoming” the imperfection of human beings, new imperfection of human beings will be lighted, which will harm the dignity of human beings and makes man worry about future. The more AI technology wants to help human beings embrace and win “future”, the more the man will lose some kind of ability and even “the future” when he gets the help. The seed of alienation is hidden in the instrumental nature of technology. The most prominent expression of the negative side of technology in this point is that the technology which is developed by human hands will bring the growing-up of human beings into the fate of self-negation. The AI is the metaphor of the life of Sisyphus: the significance and victory of the life is exhibited by the way of self-negation.

Key words: AI, technology, self-negation, Sisyphus
