Abstract: Human freedom and liberation are the ideal goals of social development depicted by Marx and Engels. Marx saw the possibility of human freedom and liberation through the application of machines and automatic machine systems that replace manual labor of workers， and predicted the emergence of special “automatic machines” such as “artificial intelligence” to replace the “intellectual” labor of workers. Artificial intelligence is an inevitable result of the development and externalization of human intelligence， as well as the pursuit of surplus value by capital and the use of intelligent machine systems to replace the labor of “white-collar workers”. The innovative application of artificial intelligence has reshaped the free time of human beings， but the artificial intelligence system has become a means of labor and working conditions for the use of capital， freely occupying the value created by the labor of some members of society， triggering issues regarding “distribution fairness”， “labor justice” and so on， and also putting out new requirements for changing capitalist production relations.

Key words: artificial intelligence; human freedom and liberation; free time; labor justice
