Abstract

21st Century society could be defined with the term of 4thIndustrial Revolution (4IR), which means various kinds of technology are amalgamated with ICT technology. Since a little bit ago, Genetics, Nanotechnology, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics are changing people’s everyday life. These technologies are accelerating another form of digital convergence to Information Technology and that affects future of human being, especially morality and human nature. The speed and ability of technological development excesses human understanding and it challenges human existences. In the discussion on Artificial Intelligence, Strong AI and Super AI are in the center of the issues for fear that those technologies could be threaten the nature of human being, e.g. humanity or morality which makes the real identity of human nature. With these discussions, corresponding measures of the Ethics Education is closely connected with philosophical perspectives on technological singularity and artificial intelligence. In the Age of technology, the direction of Education should aim at enhancing and supporting morality and forming desirable character for the purpose of recovery and building up the human nature, which controls the direction of the development of the technology.
