The dissertation provides a comprehensive analysis of the digitalization of the
economy in the context of modern challenges, instability, uncertainty, and
information stochasticity. The phenomenon of economic digitalization is associated
with such concepts as information, BIG DATA, artificial intelligence (AI),
information and communication technologies (ICT), machine learning (ML). The
study expands the interdisciplinary field of socio-philosophical reflection on
digitalization as the basis of a new type of society (network, information, digital),
which is becoming increasingly relevant and necessitates a radical revision of the
content of digitalization aimed at using the opportunities of the digital age.
The cross-cutting theme of the dissertation is the articulation of the
digitalization of the economy and its heuristic potential in the formation of a digital
society, the corresponding type of culture and consciousness. The study identifies the
conceptual foundations of the strategy of digital development of enterprises and
organizations, the formation of worldview guidelines for managers in the new digital
phase of the scientific and technological revolution, which contributes to the
transformation of their activities.
The main components of scientific novelty submitted for defense are specified
in the following provisions:
For the First Time:
- Researched by examines the concept of “digitalization of the economy” in the
context of socio-philosophical analysis as an important factor influencing the social
life of a person, reveals the essence of the phenomenon of digitalization and the
content that denotes it. The innovativeness of this concept is increasing due to the
approach of the era of technological singularity, which requires adaptability, synergy
and flexibility in the processes of integrating digital technologies into all spheres of
social and economic life, and requires the transformation of human consciousness;
- A conceptual vision of the digital strategy of enterprises and organizations in
the context of war and post-war recovery as a philosophical paradigm and a roadmap
for Ukraine is formed. Its main characteristics are identified, including the use of
information technology, the Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing, artificial
intelligence, digital management and governance. A comprehensive analysis of the
digital strategy contributes to its impact on all spheres of public life, based on
economic growth trends. In a rapidly changing world, the digitalization of the
economy creates new opportunities that have ushered in a new era of humanity at the
regional, national and global levels;
- The article examines the impact of artificial intelligence on humans, society,
management, and organizations as a factor of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which
is used to comprehensively improve the efficiency of production and the innovative
capacity of human society. Artificial intelligence is presented as a phenomenon
(objective phenomenon) and as a development strategy (technology), which
complement each other. It is proved that AI as a phenomenon is a key phenomenon
of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which transforms people, society, economy,
management and organizations; as a development strategy, it is a technology that is
focused on widespread use in the economy aimed at creating digital clusters with
high competitiveness.
Has been Improved:
- The philosophical and scientific foundations of the study of the phenomenon
of economic digitalization in the context of historical development and evolution are
determined, and it is determined that this phenomenon is a new scientific
achievement within the framework of social philosophy and philosophy of history.
Science and technology are the main productive forces of digitalization, since in the
eighteenth century two scientific and technological revolutions were caused by
mechanical and electrical technologies, which led to a qualitative leap in production
and human life. In the mid-20th century, the third technological revolution, led by
information technology, opened the door to a new dimension of humanity's future.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution, driven by a new generation of information
technology in the 21st century, has led the world to digital transformation.
