The analogy of alienation of labor in the classical society of commodity production and the modern information society

The paper presents the notions of rent, capital growth and alienation of labor, products and the very human essence of workers (irreplaceable existential time). In relation to the forms of alienation of the human life content of producers in liberal capitalist society, as well as in socialist societies of state capitalism, the transformation of labor alienation conditioned by the development of science and new technologies, especially the introduction of artificial intelligence, is considered. Through the characteristics of information as a final market product in the modern information society, the fundamental change in the act of buying and selling is analyzed and the emergence of historically new forms of alienation is noted. The direct alienation of produced material goods was replaced by the ?alienation of information and knowledge?, which led to the acceleration of capital accumulation based on other people?s commitment and in extremely short terms. This also conditioned the revaluation in the market of mass education, because ?the value of information is inversely proportional to the knowledge of its content?. Unlike classic goods that are lost when sold on the market, information is only multiplied by sale and remains the property of the seller himself. The essentially human thing that is primarily alienated in such an exchange is the creative ability of the original individual, and according to this, an analogy with the classical mechanism of alienation of goods, work and life time is claimed. In the conclusion, the possibilities of overcoming the alienation of human creative property, intellectual property and information from man, who is still the main creator of value, are considered, and he criticizes the unfounded expectation of the complete replacement of human work by robots and artificial intelligence for two reasons: robots do not have autonomous consciousness and therefore can only be recreaters (artificial automata) but not authentic creators (natural automata).
