Philosophy is always needed. But probably not for everyone. Some may not philosophize themselves, but only enjoy the fruits of others ' philosophizing without even thinking about it.
Especially philosophy is needed in times of dramatic changes, when everything familiar is at least in doubt. We have to rethink the very foundations of our behavioral strategy, both individually and socially. It's like that's the time.
There are not so many things in the world that you need to get rid of so categorically, and even those that seem harmful with some improvement can find their application — there will be a place for everything. And you can't get rid of such a fundamental and pervasive phenomenon, because philosophy lies very deep in all the manifestations of our culture.
To understand the role of philosophy in the modern world, it is necessary to remember that the thinking of a progressive person is based on a philosophical worldview, and it is thanks to it that a person learns the environment systematically, critically and using logic. That is, philosophy is, so to speak, the pinnacle of human culture, because something more perfect and applicable in all spheres of activity has not yet been invented. And instead of teaching the basics of religions in schools, thereby affirming an outdated religious worldview, we should teach philosophy, affirming a philosophical worldview.
The question is quite complex, but there is a hidden question in this question. What does the author of the question mean, what philosophy is he asking about? If it is a question about the love of wisdom or it is a study of the theory of ancient philosophy. We are just, just trying to understand what the sages revealed to people more than 2,500 years ago. At present, there are no wise people on the scale of the Wise Men of the East. Now it is necessary to understand and know what has already been known for a long time. Philosophy is always needed, it has always been and will always be, regardless of whether we want it or not. Wisdom – – – is a look ahead!!! With respect.
And why now, and not always. After all, it performs many important functions for a person. And especially it is needed “now” and, of course, in the form of science, in order to clarify the situation both with the sciences themselves and with philosophy itself.
After all, science provides the output of knowledge and is always relevant for everyone and everything related to human activity. And not only with her…
As a need to construct philosophical (ideological)If there are systems equal to Hegel's in scope and depth of coverage of nature, history, and consciousness, then it is impossible to create such a system, and it is not necessary.In terms of content,it was what we needed, but since it was unacceptable in its idealistic form as a methodology of cognition, then it was impossible for us to use it.Marx reversed it for us in the form of historical materialism.From that moment on,the formation of philosophical systems was transformed from a science into a reactionary (right-wing)perversion,which gives us no hope of any healthy optimism about the future, with the exception of historical materialism.It contains only the banner of a healthy national and any other “spirit” (in the sense of the spiritual development of humanity).From that moment on,the hour of death has struck for any kind of ideology in essence,but unfortunately not in form;this shortcoming will have to be overcome not only in language, but also in the way we look at it. history and consciousness(thinking),since this problem in looking at nature was solved by L. Feuerbach.Since Marx and Engels solved this problem for us as well,we have no choice but to abandon all ideology and be guided by the worldview of a sober view of the world, assimilating the revealed laws of nature, history(society)and consciousness(thinking), as well as explaining for ourselves the practice of this world using the theory developed in various fields of science.Types of ideology, after their transformation into a science, themselves become a methodology of cognition.Isn't modern materialistic aesthetics the methodology of art, i.e., its logic and history?Also in everything else, including the state structure and public order.If in science the concept of democracy means that it is obligatory to change state officials at any time at the request of the people,then it is criminal to replace it with any ideology, i.e. the will of a set of private individuals, who may be sincerely concerned for the interests of humanity.
Philosophy was once a self-sufficient science. At the dawn of human development, philosophers often formulated correct theories about the structure of the universe in the course of their reflections. But now science has gone so far that it will not be possible to move further only by philosophical reasoning. If you lock a philosopher in a room, he will come out with a completely wrong hypothesis. Our deductive reasoning works at the macro level and fails completely at the quantum level. Philosophy is no longer suitable for studying the world around us. Now philosophy can only be a way of understanding scientific ideas.
I will say as a Master of philosophy – no, I don't need it. Philosophy was relevant at the time of building a picture of the world, at the time of global discoveries, great achievements and grandiose battles. Today we live in a time of post-everything. Everything has already happened. Everything has already been completed. Everything is explained, described, and chewed up. Philosophy in its original sense is an outdated relic. “Earn and spend!” “that's the philosophy of our time.

It depends on what you mean by that.
A person is always driven by intelligence. Philosophy is a reflection of the paradigm of one's own intelligence.
Someone needs to reflect, someone just needs to act-it depends on the psychotype and personality characteristics.
