Luciano Floridi
Informacja jest podstawową cechą rzeczywistości, a skoro żyjemy dziś w „infosferze”, potrzebujemy nowej etyki dla świata cyfrowego.
Umiejscowienie
Główny orędownik filozofii informacji jako dziedziny, obecnie w Yale: po Koperniku, Darwinie i Freudzie „czwarta rewolucja” Turinga czyni z nas organizmy informacyjne w „infosferze”, która potrzebuje własnej etyki.

Floridi gave his constructionism a Kantian shape: things in themselves remain unknowable, and we know systems through models at chosen levels of abstraction (The Philosophy of Information, 2011). L.

Floridi called Turing’s the fourth revolution after Copernicus, Darwin and Freud: we are informational organisms (‘inforgs’) among other intelligent agents (The Fourth Revolution, 2014). L.

Floridi argued that the ‘user’s knowledge’ tradition inherited from Plato should be complemented, if not replaced, by constructionism: knowing as making and modelling (‘A Defence of Constructionism’, 2011).

Stanowisko
Floridi established the philosophy of information as a field in its own right. Information, he argues, is as basic a concept for our age as being, knowledge or substance were for earlier philosophy, and his “informational structural realism” holds that reality is best understood as a structure of informational objects. Philosophy works with “levels of abstraction”, explicit choices of the variables through which a system is described, and it is less the representation of a given world than “conceptual design”, closer to the knowledge of the maker than to that of the observer. “The Fourth Revolution” places digital technology in a series of blows to human self-importance: after Copernicus, Darwin and Freud, Turing showed that we are not the only intelligent agents, and we now live as “inforgs”, informational organisms, in an “infosphere” where the line between online and offline has dissolved into “onlife”. His information ethics gives every existing thing, as an informational entity, a minimal moral standing and counts the destruction or impoverishment of the infosphere as an evil. In AI ethics he has worked on principles for a “good AI society” and on its regulation in Europe.
