伦理学与科学同行——共同应对会聚技术的伦理挑战

发布时间：2018-09-07 21:11

【摘要】：会聚技术以会聚纳米技术、生物技术、信息技术和认知科学这四大科技为手段,以提高人类能力,甚至改变我们的物种为目标。因而,从这一概念提出之始就引起了广泛的争议。"香山科学会议"第527次学术讨论会围绕"会聚技术的伦理问题及其治理"这一主题,针对纳米技术与合成生物学所带来的安全与伦理问题及其治理,展开了人文科学、社会科学与自然科学的跨学科对话和深入讨论。与会代表认为,会聚技术已经将对自然的干预转向人自身。在这样的背景下,伦理学不仅要"坐而论道",更要"起而行之":即深入科学技术前沿,与科学家一同分析会聚技术发展的可能性及其条件,在科学实践中厘清和辨析会聚技术的伦理问题,探索会聚技术健康发展的伦理框架。
[Abstract]:Convergence technology uses nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science as the means to improve human capabilities and even change our species. Thus, from the very beginning of this concept, there has been widespread controversy. " The 527th Colloquium of Xiangshan Scientific Conference focused on the theme of "Ethical problems of Convergence Technology and its Governance", and focused on the safety and ethical problems and their governance brought about by nanotechnology and synthetic biology. Cross-disciplinary dialogue and in-depth discussion between social sciences and natural sciences. Participants believe that convergence technology has shifted its intervention in nature to humans themselves. Against this background, ethics should not only "sit back and talk about the Tao", but also "do it": go deep into the frontier of science and technology, and work with scientists to analyze the possibilities and conditions for the development of convergence technology. In scientific practice, the ethical issues of convergence technology are clarified and analyzed, and the ethical framework for the healthy development of convergence technology is explored.
