摘要
人工智能技术的迅速发展,使得传统人文主义所设定的将理性或情感作为人与非人之间的边界已不再无可置疑。菲利普·迪克的科幻小说《仿生人会梦见电子羊吗?》中,仿生人的外形、智性与行为无异于人类,甚至优于普通人,却因其“非人性”而遭到合法追杀,而人类却已全面异化为科技“寄生虫”。无论是小说中判别人与仿生人的方式,还是赏金猎人爱上仿生人后的伦理困境,抑或是主人公在捕杀所有仿生人后深刻的悔悟,它们既呈现了人性内在的裂隙,也洞见了人性的多样形态,甚至还发现了“非人”身上的人性之善,为探寻后人类时代人性内涵的复杂性以及人机边界开放的可能性提供了启示。
With the dramatic development of AI technology,traditional humanism-dominated setting of rationality or emotion as the boundary between human and nonhuman is no longer without doubt.In Philip K.Dick's science fiction Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?,humans are alienated as“parasites”of technology who are void of feeling like machines while androids are almost the same as and even superior to human in corporeality,intellectuality and behavior,but they are doomed to be“retired”for their supposed inhumanity.Either the criteria to distinguish androids from humans,or the bounty's ethical dilemma when falling in love with the android,or his deep repentance after the“retirement”of all androids,evidently shows the rupture and diversity of humanity,even the goodness of“the non-human”which provides insights into the profoundness of humanity as well as the broadening of the humanity border.
