當人類不再沉思，我們又要如何活著AI 世代最值得讀的一部經典在美麗新世界裡，大眾享樂與狂歡，無需憂慮煩惱。當階級無從更改，喜好與心理皆受制約操控，我們迎來的，將會是怎麼樣的社會？赫胥黎（Aldous Huxley）1932年發表的反烏托邦小說，預示了福特紀元632年，由科技與享樂控制的「文明社會」。科學使人類遠離疾病、貧窮甚至蚊害，卻也成為控制多數人的利器。當來到21 世紀，AI 人工智慧發展迅速，我們未來會走向赫胥黎的 Brave New World，還是歐威爾的 1984，或是如今科技巨頭嚮往的新文明？【在世界國，穩定是最高原則】「群體、身分、穩定」是世界國（World State）的格言。世界國透過人工繁殖大批育成人類，預先決定其高低階級及未來職業，以生理差異維持穩定。低階層因發育時控制缺氧身形矮小，智力受限，終生只能做勞力活；高階級身形高大，聰明絕頂，從事專業管理職位。人的出生不再出於自然，而是在中央育成暨制約中心裡大量製造；個體的未來境遇與生命歷程，在體制之中早有定數，無法打破。【幸福，是徹底釋放達成管理】 在這個社會，傳統家庭溫暖不再，父母、婚姻與胎生視為令人反胃的詞彙。人類自試管育成後，幼年起於睡眠中接受「道德」教育，耳邊不斷播送著「無人不幸福」等格言。為了達成幸福，人類本能不受一絲壓抑，而是徹底享樂：性不再限於閨房，而是集體的狂歡；迷幻藥物「梭麻」（soma）每日配給。當一切慾望都能立即滿足，人類就不再渴求、不再改變，社會得以恆久穩定。【痛苦，證明人類之所以為人】身為社會整體一份子，受制約的人深信遇到不順心的事，吃點梭麻就能解決；若是看到「保留區」裡存有婚姻、宗教信仰的野蠻人，更是要多吃幾錠。世界國致力於消除人類的痛苦，使大多數人趨於平庸，卻無法讓天生異於常人的個體融入其中，無論是身形較小而憤世的伯納德，智力遠超旁人的赫姆霍茲，還是喜愛莎士比亞的野蠻人約翰，流放的命運已然注定。當人類安於平穩、不再受渴求所苦，也就不再創造不朽；在新世紀裡，莎士比亞不再誕生。在美麗新世界裡，人們是這樣的生活的：● 享樂主義：人受制約得密集接觸性、藥物等感官刺激，遠離獨處沉思，以消除不合群的思想。● 實用至上：抽象有罪，實用最重要！抽象知識只要懂一些，懂太多有礙成為和諧社會一份子。● 消費導向：鼓勵消費，物品壞了就換新；低階層更制約排斥自然美景，卻要愛昂貴的鄉村運動。●
