Electronic Culture and Chipping Problem

Abstract

The article discusses the strong and weak versions of chipping in the context of the development of electronic culture. The weak version is actually valid in the system of electronic culture in the real activities of modern society. Almost in all business areas, in administration, education, banking industry, military industrial sector, etc. using chips and electronic devices has long been an empirical fact. The strong version faces four challenges: the lack of fundamental theories of the brain, uncertainty of norm and pathology in medicine, the lack of legal norms defining the concept of “human nature” and the conflict with traditional moral and religious values. The criticism of electronic culture and chipping is based on the thesis of the inadmissibility of intervention in human nature. The article shows that changing human nature is the pattern of biological evolution. In addition, cultural factors, within which anthropogeny occurs, have further accelerated this change. The criticism of electronic culture as a whole can be seen as a criticism of modern science and technology with the pseudoscientific notions on the incompatibility of science and human nature. But at the same time, the full implementation of the strong version of chipping is premature.
