Political And Legal Transformations In The Context Of The Development Of Technologies And Intelligent Systems: Transhumanistic Perspectives[Трансгуманистические Перспективы Политико-Правовых Трансформаций В Контексте Интенсификации Развития Систем Искусственного Интеллекта]

Introduction. Innovationism in various areas of society has changed both the natural and social environment. The change speed in the new information and communication field is the reason for many questions related to studying the problems of society and the machine, finding out the place of artificial intelligence in social relations. These processes stimulated the philosophical research, the subject of which was man, modern technologies, scenarios for the development of society, sociocultural and political-legal forms of its organization. Since the 90s of the twentieth century in the West and later in Russia, a transhumanistic concept has been formed, which connects man, society and technology in a special way. Representatives of transhumanism study the technical developments of human immortality and build models of the perfect man, pursuing as a goal, his deliverance from suffering and disease. Transhumanistic perspectives actualize the need for a thorough, constructive and critical assessment of the possible advantages and risks of technological development, and its impact on the political and legal structure. In this regard, the ability to see and isolate the features of this process and subsequent reflection is fundamentally important. The purpose of the article is to consider political and legal transformations in the context of the interaction of modern technologies and society through the prism of transhumanistic perspectives, to identify possible directions of philosophical reflection of political and legal modes of modernity. Methods. To achieve the research goal, general scientific methods of cognition were used: analysis and synthesis, induction, deduction, comparison, abstraction. The article also applied institutionalfunctional and system-structural approaches, the method of interpretation and content analysis. The analysis of public opinion and special labeling of artificial intelligence was carried out with the help of appealing to network content (social networks, blogs, and forums). Communication channels reproduce messages mentioning modern technologies from the point of view of the philistine worldview based on stereotypes broadcast in society and the influence of popular culture. Content analysis revealed the relevance of the spectrum of labeling, relative to artificial intelligence systems, including the verbs “create”, “destroy”, “help”, “enslave”. Regarding the sphere of labor, law and politics, the positions differ, from outright alarmism to utopian images of social well-being. Scientific novelty of the study. The article analyzes the prospects of considering the phenomenon of social transformations, the forms of their representation through political and legal views as exemplified by transhumanism. Results. The author attempts to give a comprehensive description of social changes in the field of public administration, legal regulation, legal personality and legal responsibility, social equality of participants in legal relations through the specific refraction of these social phenomena in transhumanistic ideas. The spectrum of the main problems in the sphere of interests of the transhumanistic worldview is listed. Conclusion. Turning to modernization strategies on the example of transhumanism is a natural and necessary need in the political and legal sphere, in particular. In the course of the analysis, a wide range of problems were identified that actualize the social and axiological and anthropological optics of the research. Diverse forms of transhumanistic political trends act as manifestations of socio-legal reflection on the intensification of innovationism, which is capable of radically changing human nature.
