摘要人工智能技术的快速演进引发知识生产与传播机制的深层变革,传统图书馆作为客观知识体系管理主体的功能定位亟需重新审视。基于卡尔·波普尔“三个世界”理论,文章提出将人工智能系统视为“世界4”的理论扩展,以解释当前智能体系统自主性、生成性与认知涌现现象,从哲学本体论层面探讨人工智能对知识体系重构的深远影响。文章运用理论推演与案例分析相结合的方法,系统梳理“三个世界”理论在图情领域的接受与演绎脉络,分析大型语言模型作为认知性智能体的独立地位及其对传统知识世界边界的突破,并结合图书馆服务转型实践案例,探讨图书馆在智慧时代的角色演变与功能重构路径。研究发现,人工智能构成的“世界4”不仅在知识生成与传播机制上展现出自组织特性,还在知识验证、认知演化和社会知识结构塑造中产生深远影响;图书馆需以构建混合型知识生态系统为抓手,重塑知识服务模式,强化知识质量控制与信息素养教育,积极推动知识民主化与开放共享,以实现从传统知识守护机构向智慧型知识赋能平台的转型,才能将“世界4”拉回到人的认知范畴,使其同样作用于“世界2”“世界1”,并受到人类认知的规范,从而与“世界3”一起为人类服务。 The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence(AI)technology has triggered profound changes in the mechanisms of knowledge production and dissemination.There is an urgent need to reexamine the role of traditional libraries as the primary custodians of objective knowledge systems.Drawing upon Karl Popper’s“Three Worlds”theory,this paper proposes a theoretical extension that conceptualizes AI systems as a“fourth world”.This framework elucidates the autonomy,generativity,and cognitive emergence of contemporary intelligent agent systems.From a philosophical-ontological perspective,the paper delves into the far-reaching influence of AI on the restructuring of knowledge systems.Employing the methods of theoretical deduction and case study analysis,the study systematically traces the reception and interpretation of Popper’s“Three Worlds”theory in library and information science,and analyzes the distinct status of large language models as cognitive intelligent agents and their ability to transcend traditional knowledge domains.Through an examination of practical cases of library service transformation,the paper explores the evolving roles of libraries and the pathways for their functional restructuring in the age of intelligence.The findings indicate that the“World 4”constituted by AI exhibits self-organizing properties in knowledge generation and dissemination mechanisms,and profoundly influences knowledge verification,cognitive evolution,and the shaping of social knowledge structures.With emphasis on building a hybrid knowledge ecosystem,libraries must reshape knowledge service models,strengthen knowledge quality control and information literacy education,and actively promote knowledge democratization and open sharing,in order to achieve the transformation from traditional knowledge guardianship institutions to intelligent knowledge empowerment platforms.This allows“World 4”to be integrated into human cognition,enabling interactions with“World 2”and“World 1”while remaining governed by human cognitive frameworks.Consequently,“World 4”can serve humanity alongside“World 3”.
