信息科学需拓展定义，纳入技术与社会的互动影响。
You Can't Get There From Here: Redefining Information Science to address our sociotechnical futures
- 提出包含社会技术因素的新信息科学定义
- 强调智能技术对研究与社会的深远影响
- 适合关注科技伦理与跨学科研究者阅读
当前的信息科学定义无法全面描述该领域的研究本质，也无法应对智能技术带来的新问题。人工智能应用的普遍兴起及其对社会的影响，要求信息科学正视这些技术的社会技术属性。过去六十年的定义均未能充分涵盖技术的环境、人类及社会层面。本文倡导扩展信息科学定义，全面纳入信息对研究实践的社会技术影响。这一新定义旨在推动学术对话，拓宽跨学科视角，以更公平地探讨智能技术如何融入社会与生活。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Current definitions of Information Science are inadequate to comprehensively describe the nature of its field of study and for addressing the problems that are arising from intelligent technologies. The ubiquitous rise of artificial intelligence applications and their impact on society demands the field of Information Science acknowledge the sociotechnical nature of these technologies. Previous definitions of Information Science over the last six decades have inadequately addressed the environmental, human, and social aspects of these technologies. This perspective piece advocates for an expanded definition of Information Science that fully includes the sociotechnical impacts information has on the conduct of research in this field. Proposing an expanded definition of Information Science that includes the sociotechnical aspects of this field should stimulate both conversation and widen the interdisciplinary lens necessary to address how intelligent technologies may be incorporated into society and our lives more fairly.
