<![CDATA[The digital era presents complex philosophical and ethical challenges, prompting an evaluation of traditional frameworks like mind-body dualism for new ethical foundations. This paper critically examines Baruch Spinoza's critique of René Descartes' dualism and their contemporary relevance in addressing the ethical and existential challenges of the digital age. Employing library research and a critical-philosophical approach, this study analyzes primary and secondary texts. This research finds that while Descartes' rationalism laid the groundwork for modern scientific epistemology, its inherent dualism contributes to digital ethical and existential crises.
