Abstract:

When developed science and technology has affected human behavior in all areas, the development of technology based on ethics and the study of ethics based on technological development become the needs of our times. The autonomy, adaptability and interaction of intelligent machines has brought about great changes in human labor or working, broken through the limits of traditional institutional arrangements and ethical norms, and consequently put forward the question of how to re-understand “freedom”, “labor”, “success” and other concepts related to human nature. Both the technicalization of human body due to the development of gene editing, brain-computer interface and other technologies, and the techicalization of human spirit due to the development of the Internet, Big Data, Metaverse, Wearable Devices and other technologies have raised some practical questions about human nature, for instance, the boundary of human body, spiritual pleasure, self-dignity, self-realization and even the meaning of life. The answer to these questions will be based on a deep inquest into human nature. This opens up the second process of “human beings to become human beings”, and puts forward the requirement of balancing the development of science and technology with human value protection, and balancing the application values of technology with its social responsibilities. This shows that it is urgent to reshape or create a cultural environment conducive to human’s physical and mental growth and the improvement of life meaning in the process of turning to intelligent civilization.

Key words: a new realm of labor, technicalization of human body, technicalization of human spirit, cultural environment
