| Abstract | Les representations identitaires de l'humain (identite humaine, distinction naturel/artificiel) font-elles encore sens dans le contexte du developpement de la robotique humanoide (par l'humanisation du robot) et de l'amelioration humaine (par la robotisation de l'humain)? Le probleme est que des philosophes critiques, comme Lin et Allhoff qui ont fonde la revue NanoEthics, remettent en question ces representations identitaires de l'humain, comme si le discours de l'evaluation ethique fondee sur ces representations etait caduc quant aux deux questions qu'ils posent dans Ethics of Human Enhancement: 25 Questions and Answers en 2009: « Does the notion of human dignity suffer with human enhancements? » et « Is the natural-artificial distinction morally significant in this debate? » Le but du present article sera de montrer, a partir de differents textes publies, qui constituent notre cadre d'analyse des arguments moraux, la portee et l'insuffisance des arguments critiques que Lin et Allhoff utilisent pour repondre a ces deux questions. Mais, en appliquant a ces auteurs ce cadre de reference, nous pourrons aussi montrer en quoi la question de l'identite humaine ou la distinction naturel/artificiel fait encore sens dans l'evaluation ethique. Do human identity representations (human identity, natural/artificial distinction) still make sense in the context of the development of humanoid robotics (humanizing the robot) and human enhancement (automation of the human)? The problem is that critical philosophers, like Lin and Allhoff who founded the journal NanoEthics, challenge these representations of human identity, as if the di sc us si o n of t h e e t h ic a l ev a lu at io n o f t he se representations was exhausted with regards to the two issues that they raise in 2009 in Ethics of Human Enhancement: 25 Questions and Answers, i.e.: “Does the notion of human dignity suffer with human enhancements?” and “Is the natural-artificial distinction morally significant in this debate?” The purpose of this article is to show – in light of various texts that constitute our framework for analyzing moral arguments – the limits of the scope and insufficiency of the critical arguments that Lin and Allhoff use to answer these two questions. But in applying our framework to these authors, we will also show how the question of human identity or the natural/artificial distinction still makes sense in the ethical evaluation. |
