No, I don't think that global information technology will lead to the disappearance of autonomous thinking and action among artists and intellectuals. While technology has certainly changed the way we access and process information, it has not fundamentally altered the creative processes involved in artistic and intellectual work.

Artists and intellectuals still have the freedom to critically analyze information, draw their own conclusions, and express their ideas in their own unique ways. Additionally, the rapid pace of technological change and the vast amount of information available online can provide new sources of inspiration and challenge conventional ways of thinking, spurring further creativity and innovation.

Moreover, autonomous thinking and action can still exist even in a highly connected and technologically advanced world. The role of artists and intellectuals remains important in providing a diverse range of perspectives and ideas that can contribute to the collective understanding of our world and help to shape its future.
