Asking the question of humanization of the ICT, is, in counterpoint, wondering about their relationships to the inhumanity of the human. The ICT result from a convergence between two traditions, the epistèmè on one hand, the technè on the other hand. Today, they fit in a new convergence, the “nano” paradigm, which gathers ICT, cognition sciences and biology, under the hegemony of the nanotechnologies. Through the extension of the principle of self-organization towards artificial objects, this convergence is carrying major risks for humanity. It brings up to date the myth of Babel.Building a humanistic alternative becomes urgent. This challenge supposes to get through the restoration of a concrete common world. The influence of the ICT on the everyday life makes necessary this project. However, their anchoring in the “nano” paradigm makes it delicate and risky. The way out is narrow. Here is an attempt to outline it through the tools of knowledge, social bonds and cultural diversity.
