Evolution of Cybernetic Systems: from Computer Systems with Strong Intelligence to Superintelligent Human-Machine Communities

Abstract

The article considers the key features of cybernetic systems, their evolution and parameters that determine the level of their intelligence and self-organization. Hierarchical systems of parameters characterizing the current capabilities and speed of development of cybernetic systems, as well as factors contributing to the acceleration of their evolution are considered. Special attention is paid to semantically close concepts related to the level of intelligence of cybernetic systems and to the evolution processes of both individual and multi-agent cybernetic systems. The prospects of next-generation intelligent computer systems and the complex technology of their development and maintenance are considered. Finally, the impact of technological evolution on the development of human society is discussed, and the idea of the Global Human-Machine Community is proposed.
