Human Dignity in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: A Realistic Humanistic Approach

The rapid development of artificial intelligence is creating profound transformations in labor, social organization, power, and human life, and posing a requirement to redefine the place of humans in the process of modern development. In this context, the paper aims to develop an interdisciplinary, realist, humanistic theoretical framework to explain the process of development from survival to human dignity in the age of artificial intelligence. The research is carried out using a realistic humanistic methodology, combined with conceptual analysis, theoretical synthesis, dialectical interpretation, and an interdisciplinary approach spanning philosophy, sociology, economics, jurisprudence, and technological research. Research results show that survival is the foundation of human existence; labor is a mechanism for developing capacity; creativity is a form of high development of the subject; freedom and responsibility are conditions for people to realize their capacities; and dignity is the result of that development under specific social conditions. On this basis, the paper proposes a realistic humanistic theoretical framework as a new paradigm to orient the development of society, technology, and institutions, to protect and advance human dignity in the era of artificial intelligence.
