PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ON THE NATURE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Sitora F. Abdusattarova ,

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved from a computational discipline into a philosophical phenomenon that challenges traditional conceptions of science, technology, and humanity. As AI systems increasingly exhibit capacities such as learning, reasoning, and decision-making, they raise fundamental questions about the nature of intelligence, autonomy, and epistemic authority. This paper explores AI through the lens of contemporary philosophy of science and technology, analyzing how AI disrupts classical concepts of objectivity, agency, and scientific rationality. Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives—from analytic philosophy and phenomenology to systems theory and posthumanism—the study examines the ontological and epistemological transformations induced by artificial intelligence. Particular attention is given to the implications of machine learning, algorithmic decision-making, and human-AI interaction for rethinking the human condition in the digital age. The article emphasizes that AI is not merely a technological artifact, but a philosophical event that redefines what it means to know, to act, and to exist in a technologically mediated world.
