Artificial Intelligence, Big Data as Institutions of New Technological Generation of Economy

Abstract

The paper attempts to analyze artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data phenomenon as institutions of new technological generation of economy, referring to A. P. Loktev’s concept of ‘Internet as metainstitution’. The represented institutional conception of artificial intelligence is based on A. A. Zinoviev’s fundamental intellectology study as an integrated set of all sciences. The authors confirm that weakening of natural intelligence in the contemporary world is offset by artificial intelligence development within the framework of digit-induced technology. The research evolves Yu.M. Osipov’s thesis that artificial intelligence is closer to modern neuro=cyber=technicized human being than to robotized technics as it is. The article provides the findings on artificial intelligence and Big Data drawing on evidence from Russia and some European countries. The authors identify the reasons for institutional traps mostly presented in the form of inefficient institutions that run contrary to certain human rights and emerge with introduction of artificial intelligence into the economic activity.
