信息技术史中存在着一种速度、效率递增而信息的确定性、可靠性递减的“二律背反”现象。这一现象在电子技术占主导的当今时代表现得尤为突出 ,但却并未引起世人的足够关注。这一现象的深层相关因素决不仅仅是技术性的。它固然是“质”“量”互逆规律的一种体现 ,但其更深或曰更高理论层面的问题却难有定论 :信息技术是否在向着越来越背离其初衷的方向发展 ?信息的确定性与可靠性是否只能通过其物质载体的恒定性、耐久性或说只能以内容与物质载体建立可见的一一对应的固化关系来得以保证 ?电子信息技术是向信息技术史前状态的倒退还是对其的否定之否定 ?这些问题有待人们的深入思考与探索。
In the history of information technology, there is a phenomenon of “antinomy” with increasing speed, increasing information uncertainty and decreasing reliability. This phenomenon is particularly prominent in the current era where electronic technology is dominant, but it has not caused enough attention from the world. The underlying factor in this phenomenon is by no means just technical. Although it is a manifestation of the law of reciprocity between “quality” and “quantity”, its deeper or higher theoretical level is hard to determine whether information technology is moving away from its original purpose. Can certainty and reliability be assured only by the constancy, durability, or only the solidification of the visible, one-to-one correspondence between the content and the carrier of the substance? Electronic information technology is a prerequisite for the prehistoric state of information technology Reversal or denial of its negation? These issues require people’s deep thinking and exploration.
