Development of convergence science and technology and seeking ethical alternatives

Since the development of life science convergence technology has extended human lifespan and improved the quality of life so far, it is essential to predict the future direction of science and technology development and to reflect on ethics accordingly. In this paper, we look at how modern biotechnology and medical science and technology have developed in general, and especially the applicability of artificial intelligence technology, which is one of the means to improve the quality of life in the future well-being society. Artificial intelligence technology, which shows the ability to utilize information and data well in the era of the 4th industrial revolution, is applied to various medical fields from medical systems to diagnosis, monitoring and management, prediction, and clinical decision-making. In particular, while going through the recent COVID-19 pandemic, we have faced the limitations of science and technology for unpredictable phenomena and the problem of the realization of utopias. In addition, based on the philosophical basis for the correlation between the biotechnology convergence technology, which belongs to the matter of fact, and the quality of life issue, which belongs to the value domain, alternatives to new possibilities for securing the ethical value of science and technology were sought.
