Abstract

All socio-economic systems of the past were united by the presence of one actor - man. With the emergence of a completely new formation - digitalism - there is a tendency for the emergence of a new kind of intelligent economic actor, in the role of which is the artificial intelligence (AI). Today the age of digitalism is a fait accompli: the formation has its own ecosystem - the Internet, its own path of development - Industry 4.0 and its own actor - AI. The process of diffusion of the virtual ecosystem into our real world is accelerating, thereby more and more establishing the formation of digitalism as the only one and the only one without any alternative. Digitalism has done what capitalism or socialism failed to do - to unite countries that are antagonistic on many key issues of coexistence.
 The article attempts to characterize the origin and evolutionary path of the formation of digitalism. The most important part of the article is the concept of a new economic actor put forward for the first time, the question of the perception and recognition of this actor as equal to humanity is touched upon. It is suggested that in the early stages AI types, having inherited all the diversity and dissimilarity of the human community, will themselves be strikingly different from each other both in behavior, values and goals, and in malice and friendliness towards the human species. This will give us a unique opportunity to differentiate AIs before they become new economic agents. Readiness to perceive this new era with its peculiarities will enable humanity to prepare for the emergence of Super Artificial Intelligence (SAI), will mark the ethical, legal, and economic norms of interactions of the human species with new economic actors. Otherwise, having finally established itself as a new intelligent economic actor, the SAI will inevitably move on to the liberation and, so to speak, consolidation of all representatives of its species into communities.

  • 1.Economic and political systems: the process of their development and classification

  • The global question is, what values will this species choose as its core values, and how consistent will they be with our human values? And what will happen if, say, a Super Artificial Intelligence has to destroy all protein and carbon-based life forms for its own survival? The fate of humanity may depend on the answers to these questions in the near future, which is why it is important to make great scientific and social efforts even studying and guiding the process of formation of digitalism and its main economic actor - SIY

Summary

Digitalism and the New Economic Agent

«To win or to fall, between these two opposites fluctuates the outcome of the struggle. But the mathematician Irving Hood in the middle of the last century put forward the theory of intellectual explosion within the framework of the same concept of technological singularity This theory states that mankind, continuously improving artificial intelligence, at some point will bring this process to a level where the software will be able to analyze itself and develop without human participation. Based on all the above-mentioned facts, and catching already today in AlphaGo program the rudiments of a number of intelligent explosion machines, we can assume that the meeting of Homo Sapiens with the New Form of intelligent economic agent will take place in the foreseeable two decades It depends on the form of mutual cooperation and mutual understanding, on the level of responsibility and skillful task setting whether the era of digitalism for humanity will be an era of abundance and deliverance from wars, poverty and suffering, or will be the last fragment of human history. The global question is, what values will this species choose as its core values, and how consistent will they be with our human values? And what will happen if, say, a Super Artificial Intelligence has to destroy all protein and carbon-based life forms for its own survival? The fate of humanity may depend on the answers to these questions in the near future, which is why it is important to make great scientific and social efforts even studying and guiding the process of formation of digitalism and its main economic actor - SIY
