Abstract

The article is devoted to the philosophical understanding of artificial intelligence and the effects that accompany its functioning. The author sees the main problem in the collision of opposing processes. On the one hand, the intensive development of high technologies, driven by AI, on the other hand, the lack of a holistic social and humanitarian reflection focused on understanding how technological develop­ment is aimed at creating a reality suitable for the life of future generations. The article analyzes three groups of problems. Firstly, the author considers the con­tent of the concept of “agreed state of the future”, taking into account the request for environmental literacy and fixing the specifics of the hybrid world. Secondly, she suggests un understanding of the direction of AL development and the risks as­sociated with it. Thirdly, the turn to datafication is discussed, which forms a new type of dominance. The methodological strategy includes the principles of conver­gence and determination of the future, as well as taking into account the phe­nomenon of emergence. The subject-oriented approach, which emphasizes the pri­orities of human-sized existence, is effective. The author comes to conclusion that the level of AI maturity conflicts with the expectations associated with the abstract possibilities of its development. The paradox of the hybrid world is revealed, the problematic nature of the symbiosis of the biological “I” and the technological world and the non-self-sufficiency of datafication are shown.
