Abstract

Interpreting philosophy of Indians and Netizens in the eye of Philosophy of humanities may sound absurd to many but it seems to have a solid ground since in many ways the former seems to be providing the most convenient ways of daily life but the latter is based on the basic human values which are inseparable from human being because the human being is a product of nature who is completely attributed with feelings, emotions, imaginations, love, relationship, kindness and the like. IT or software philosophers talk of the virtual world, artificial intelligence (AI), ALife, roboethics, ethical hacking and cyber warfare like things and human emotion control though AI, controlling brain through brain-net and giving concepts like digital immortality whereas the basic value of humanities speaks of natural creativity, better sociocultural ambiance, real-world and real-life relations, morality, spirituality and the ultimate search for truth, manual labor and agrarian economy in which such technology can be used for making things smoother but its continuous updating and creating a host of consumers of AI or internet or informatics or absorbed in an undeclared warfare of IT world would not provide many solutions to maintain peace and harmony among the people of the world in the long run. So, keeping the philosophy of humanities a constant, the paper focuses on both positive and negative dimensions of such a flooding move of the human world from real to the virtual and counts on some of the valued opinions of philosophers and poets those who apprehend that it would lead to the loss of true value of human body and mind, and create a host of idiots who are crazy for information and communication and cannot run without the help of such technology-driven gadgets.
