Abstract: Digital technology, as the core driving force of the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, has been profoundly changing social production methods and human lifestyles. However, the robust growth of digital technology is also haunted by a series of deep-seated contradictions and challenges. Viewed from the Marxist view of technology and society, three major concerns come out: the collusion between technological logic and capital logic, the structural imbalance between the leap in productivity and distribution mechanisms, and the value paradox between technical rationality and social rationality. In the context of the Digital China strategy, to address such concerns, we should reshape the subjectivity of laborers to achieve labor liberation, institutionalize the socialist ethics to enhance technological governance, and to employ the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind to promote global digital technology cooperation, thus achieving a shift in technological objectives from “efficiency-driven” to “human liberation”. The proposal of the Digital China strategy not only provides theoretical support for the development of digital technology in China but also contributes Chinese wisdom and solutions to promoting global digital technology cooperation and building a digital community with a shared future for mankind.

Key words: Digital China strategy, digital technology, view of technology and society, artificial intelligence
