“Artificial Intelligence” Vs “Human Intelligence”: a New Ethics of Technological Development

The current situation in the field of technological development is marked by the rapid increase in the digital component of scientific and technological progress, in particular, by the creation of intelligent systems capable of providing a number of functions, previously performed exclusively by humans. This thesis refers to the introduction of artificial intelligence technologies, aimed at replacing the functions associated with human cognitive activity. It seems that society in the development of scientific and technological progress has approached a dangerous line, beyond which the uncontrolled introduction of cognitive technologies is capable of generating potential risks. This circumstance requires the development of a new ethics of technological development, based on the unconditional priority of public interest and security of the individual.
