Abstract

Artificial intelligence technology has epoch-making significance, especially in changing human lifestyles and playing a role in promotion. But... Yes, with the widespread use of artificial intelligence technology, human labor time and labor input have been weakened to a certain extent, precisely because the technical characteristics of artificial intelligence and the way of human labor form a clear contrast, leading people to pay great attention to the ethical aspects of artificial intelligence research. Therefore, with the development of technology, Marx’s theory of alienation is also applicable to the study of the ethical dimension of man and technology in contemporary society, this is of great significance in the modern human society formed by the technological community.
