Philosophy
We are now living in an era of remarkable technological innovation, such as the development of information technology and the biotechnology revolution such as genetic manipulation. In addition to the development of AI and the advent of virtual currency, with the global pandemic of the novel coronavirus, "data-monitoring" using the location information of smartphones has become a reality. Or "Crisper," which received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, is a great discovery for genome editing. How should we face "technology" that can change our society and life? Looking back, mankind has survived and formed society by using all "technology" from its birth. From stone tools, languages, letters, books, and all other media, the history of mankind has been built. At the same time, philosophers have developed thoughts about "technology" together with "technology" (Aristotle, Kant, Hegel, Freud, Marx, Nietzsche, etc.). This article reviews the history of technology that formed human history and the history of philosophers who have continued to think about "technology" in all ages, and examines the future in which we live from the 21st century onward. AI, genetic engineering, digital surveillance society, big data, post-human, virtual currency, IoT, post-capitalism. Where does humanity go? From stone tools to printing, to the digital economic sphere, "Philosophy of Technology" reads the entire history of mankind.
