Technology Ethics: Philosophical Principles for Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

Aim. The relevance of the research goal is due to the active transformation of social interaction under the influence of the dynamics of the information and communication space. New challenges of modernity, including artificial intelligence, necessitate a rethinking of the significance of the virtual world for effective collaboration. The purpose of the article is an extended analysis of the philosophical foundations of the responsible use of artificial intelligence and its impact on socio-cultural dynamics and the responsible use of technologies. Methods. The purpose of the article is an extended analysis of the philosophical foundations of the responsible use of artificial intelligence and its impact on socio-cultural dynamics and the responsible use of technology. Results. The study highlights the relative risks and potential benefits of the global digitalization of public space. It emphasizes that modern algorithms and virtual reality affect the understanding of reality, freedom, individuality, and social interaction, which can potentially lead to a destructive transformation of the individual, its excessive absorption by the digital environment, and loss of identity. It examines key ethical dilemmas in the use of artificial intelligence, and analyzes the philosophical principles of responsibility in the field of digital technologies. Conclusions. The main scientific contribution of the research is to investigate the issues of changing human identity and the concept of freedom, rethinking reality, the dynamics of social structure, and epistemological problems. The article substantiates that at the present stage, artificial intelligence is being integrated into all spheres of social life, which necessitates the synergy of the socio-cultural sphere and identity, digital ethics and critical thinking, and the development of a culture of responsible use of neural networks.
