Abstract

This article utilizes the perspectives of philosopher Immanuel Kant to evaluate human existence in the digital age. In the context of the digital era, with the advent of artificial intelligence, do humans remain the free and creative subjects of cognition? Amid an ever-increasing ocean of knowledge, can humans reach the truth? In the digital age, there exists a parallel existence of two worlds: the real world and the digital world. Thus, are humans still free entities in choosing ethical behavior in both of these worlds? The digital age blends natural beauty with artificial beauty; therefore, do humans remain the standard of beauty? The author of the article addresses these questions from the viewpoint of Kantian philosophy while also presenting their own perspectives.
