【 摘 要 】

The authors consider the problems of the development of technological innovations using the example of convergent technologies, which, on the one hand, expand the possibilities of man, and on the other hand, threaten him. There are different research positions in the assessment of the prospects for the application of NBIC-convergence - from alarmist to overly optimistic. It is proposed to divide the consequences of technological innovation into several groups: 1) related to changes in the natural world and the technical environment; 2) leading to social transformations; 3) changing the theoretical-cognitive and methodological settings. It is concluded that the general direction of technological innovation should be analyzed not only within the framework of scientism, but must be supplemented with a humanistic approach.
