人之為人的追問與守望

The Inquiry and Watchfulness into the Nature of Being Human

Abstract

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract in English.

In the article “Neuroessentialism and the Dilemma of Moral Bioenhancement”, Professor Xu Xiangdong transcends conventional ethical critiques centred on freedom, autonomy, and justice, as well as practical debates concerning technological risks and regulatory frameworks. Against the backdrop of the global human enhancement trend, he reframes the discourse on moral bioenhancement through a critique of neuro-essentialism. Rather than focusing solely on whether moral bioenhancement technology is feasible or desirable, Professor Xu elevates the discussion to a more fundamental philosophical inquiry: what it means to be human in the age of artificial intelligence.
