The article analyses philosophical reflection, value rationality and critical thinking under the conditions of digital society. Using a philosophical-axiological approach, it examines how algorithmic culture transforms self-understanding, social communication, moral choice and educational practice. The study argues that critical thinking should not be reduced to information verification; it should be understood as a value-oriented model that integrates ontological self-understanding, communicative responsibility and normative autonomy. The proposed model offers a conceptual basis for human-centred education and ethical digital citizenship.
