Full Description
The Future of Digital Well-Being explores how digital technologies and artificial intelligence are reshaping human flourishing and the meaning of the good life, with insights from philosophy, ethics, psychology, and communication science.
Interest in digital well-being has increased in recent years as researchers from many disciplines have acknowledged the power of emerging technologies to dramatically affect our lives. Studying digital well-being requires us to engage with age-old questions about the nature of human flourishing (and how to cultivate it), while simultaneously striving to understand how artificial intelligence and other digital technologies are changing the very nature and meaning of the good life. To do this, the authors of this volume use conceptual and empirical tools from a wide range of disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, and communication science to illuminate the importance of digital well-being in the age of artificial intelligence. Moreover, the final chapters in this volume introduce ethical perspectives from non-Western traditions, showing how designing effectively for digital well-being requires that we make use of global conceptual resources.
This book is intended for academic scholars and advanced students across a range of disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, communication studies, ethics, and technology studies. The Future of Digital Well-Being is designed to appeal to an international audience, with contributors and perspectives drawn from both Western and non-Western contexts. It will be of particular interest to those engaged in interdisciplinary research on digital well-being, as well as practitioners and industry professionals interested in the ethical implications and practical applications of digital technologies.
