摘要: 自近代科学诞生以来,其与哲学、社会及人文价值之间的复杂关系便成为一个持久的理论议题。在人工智能技术重塑社会图景的当下,这一关系呈现出新的紧迫性:技能的精进是否必然伴随着整体性智慧的衰退?工具理性的全面展开,是否在深层挑战着人对自身意义与价值根基的理解?这些追问,正是“科学技术与社会”(Science, Technology and Society,STS)这一交叉学科领域的核心关切。今年适逢吴晓明教授著作《科学与社会》出版三十周年,而去年科学技术史一级学科已正式将“科学技术与社会”纳入二级学科,标志着该领域研究与人才培养进入建制化的新阶段。当下,重返那些关乎科技发展方向与人类自我理解的哲学与社会学思考,显得尤为重要。本次访谈由徐志宏副教授策划发起,王金林教授协调主持,闫宏秀教授担纲采访,共同围绕智能时代的STS与新文科建设等根本性问题,对吴晓明教授展开深入采访。现将访谈精华择要刊发,以飨读者。

Abstract: Since the advent of modern science, the complex relationship between science and philosophy, society, as well as humanistic values has been a persistent theoretical issue. In the current context where artificial intelligence technology is reshaping the social landscape, this relationship takes on a new sense of urgency: Does the advancement of skills inevitably accompany a decline in holistic wisdom? Does the full-fledged development of instrumental rationality profoundly challenge humanity’s understanding of its own meaning and the foundations of value? These inquiries lie at the core of the interdisciplinary field of “Science, Technology and Society” (STS). This year, Professor Wu Xiaoming’s book Science and Society has been published for thirty years, and STS, as a secondary discipline, has been included under the first level discipline of the history of science and technology, marking a new stage of institutionalization in research and talent cultivation in this field. At this juncture, it is particularly crucial to revisit philosophical and sociological reflections concerning the direction of technological development and human self-understanding.
