Society digitalization: technology, science and morality
In recent years, modern society has faced a number of challenges: from global international problems to digital inequality, as well as the existential consequences of the use of technology. In order to cope with these challenges, it is necessary to rethink the impact and consequences of digitalization, primarily in three areas: technology, science and morality. These industries became the subject of analysis, since they most relevantly and clearly reflect the trends in the digitalization of modern human social life. Technology is the basis of digitalization, science sets the development trends for these technologies, and morality becomes the result of their impact on society and humans. However, this study also touches on another key issue – the problem of rethinking the concept of technology and its impact on the scientific and moral development of society in the context of digital change. Aim. To analyze the development of technic, science and morality in the context of the use of advanced digital technologies. Methods. Comparative method, as well as logical and systemic analysis, which determined the general logic of the study. Results. Based on a cross-survey. The article examines the main areas of using digtal technologies in science, as well as the moral aspects of their application. The study revealed both positive and negative trends in the digitalization of such areas as science, technology and moral development of society. The authors conclude that the digitalization is ambiguous, which, by triggering changes in science and technology, significantly reformats moral relations in modern society.
