Abstract

The development of technology has brought new challenges to scientific ethics and the relationship between human and machine. In addition, media has already been redesigned by social platforms, citizen journalism and the blogsphere. As such, the boundary between mass media and fringe are becoming porous. Contemporary philosopher Rosi Braidotti reveals her thinking on the ethics of Gene editing, the subjectivity of human, the boundary between human and machine, algorithm and the publicity of journalism, as well as new university model and educational concept in the post-human era. She believes that the essential reason for these problems is that natural sciences are developing too fast, while humanities are losing its respects and values from the society. Although genetic experimentation inevitably involves the manipulation of capital, capital is not the only criterion for big decisions.
