Semantic features of complex technosocial systems: On the taxonomy of artificial intelligence technological packages

Abstract

Objectives. The aim ofthis work is to enhance the scientific and methodological apparatus of artificial intelligence (AI) sciences by enriching their conceptual framework. The current conceptual framework of AI sciences does not reflect the intricate nature of this technological and socioeconomic phenomenon as possessing the diverse range of capabilities and the interconnectedness that allows for the imitation of human cognitive functions and comparable results. The author of the article structures the concept of the technological package of AI, describing its system properties, connections and functional elements based on the various types of human cognitive and operational activities.Methods. The research is based on the concept (method) of technological packages—genetically and functionally connected sets of technologies with system properties.Results. For the first time in Russian and international practice, the basic (general) taxonomy of the AI technological package has been specified and structured. A taxonomy of the AI metatechnological package (a package of metatechnologies) has been proposed. General taxonomy can serve as a tool for improving strategies, methodological documents and state programs to define the development of AI systems at state or industry level.Conclusions. The suggested basic (general) taxonomy oftechnological package and taxonomy of metatechnologies package allows research to move away from the limited view of AI. It increases semantic and methodological clarity in relation to AI as a complex technosocial phenomenon and contributes to the harmonized integration of AI systems intо the sphere of socioeconomic activities of the state. It can thus serve as a foundation for further improvement of state economic and legal regulation of AI development.
