good morning good morning

day dear colleagues

thank you, thank you

thank you so much

organizers for

invitation thanks

to all those who are gloomy

in the Siberian morning came

before this palace

culture

I’m not going to

shut up today

train futurists it

this I do in Moscow

it’s very bad

the profession pokes behind

belt of futurists

today we will be

you talk about

other things though how

recent futurists

we will talk about

future

what is interesting and

the question of how

our

familiar to us

social life and

as

new

technology today

man and technology

it’s like two

parallel

evolving

species

interrelated

in

the symbiotic relationship

but nevertheless

independent of

friend and key

phenomenon that

is interested in

sociologists of this

process is called

phenomenon

delegation

remember another 15 years

back you understand

surely somewhere 10-15

phones by heart

today we remember

one of his

and here not always in

general opened again

15 years ago and

choosing both

get to the house by

the third

transport ring

or stand in a traffic jam on

I took Tver

decision is not for him

a responsibility

today this decision

for me accepts

navigator

responsibility

for some reason still

not judging by such

image and we

delegate all that

can u be delegated

begins cognitive

functions like memory

or imagination and

finishing

mechanisms for

decisions sometimes

everyday by

way to go and

sometimes meaningful

sell or not

sell shares and in

case with the military

very

important shoot or

and shoot the actual

What means

delegate to

sociologist

delegate means

trust the phone

bought yesterday I

trust more than

a neighbor on the staircase

a cell with which

lived half a lifetime

at the door and certainly

much more than

his deputy

here in this sense

delegation and

trust very closely

connected to each other

we recently

colleagues actually

a few months

back finished this

a study project

those on optimism

for the study of trust

because who to whom and how

trusts sociologists

traditionally

learn networks of trust

this example is

how they

branched

broad in

academic campus in

Novosibirsk

attention spoiler

inhabitants

network campus

trust is much more

broader

dense did not want

offend a resident

Novosibirsk

yet when

we turned on this time

in the study

techno issue

optimism that we

number wanted to understand

how many people trust

techniques

how ready we are

delegate and

trust others

us gadget sometimes

fundamentally important

for us things

one of the results

research

was in principle

quite expected

russia country techno

optimists have faith in us

in the scientific and technical

progress has replaced

faith religious and

we have about 15 20

percent of those on

optimism is higher than

countries in Europe a

second result

which seemed to me

unexpected in

the fact that Russian

techno optimists

are so severe they

like those vegetarians

who do not eat meat

not because they love

animals but because

hate plants

in fact for

introduction of a judge robot

advocates such

the number of people not

because they believe in

technique but because

look at our

courts for unmanned

transport pleases those

who does not trust people

in general, see how

they introduce the same

system history

health and

demand

immediately enter

robot surgeon in this

our

it turned out pretty

a strange situation with

which trust

machinery becomes

back

is proportional to

trust in people in general

trust in human

nature and especially

trust by the institute

such as courts

police

health

education systems

if so goes

then the future

graduate students of mine

current graduate students

will not explore the network

trust between

inhabitants

academic campus and

Novosibirsk a network

trust between residents

in the academy of his town

unmanned

his smart cars

microwave and

apparently no less clever

refrigerator what is it

means what it is

everything actually leads

we are not used to

a strange combination

which

was formed in the 21st century

combination of those on

optimism and

political

pessimism

remember the Utopians

The 17th century they

believed that development

of technologies

beneficent power

couple as the doctor writes

your which jeers

Karl Mars in chapter 13

of capital

free people from

labor service and

people will be able to devote

yourself why

nature prepared

politics and particular

create more

fair

society there was everything

purely there those on

optimism combined with

political

optimism

respectively

dystopia

of the twentieth century

same story about

technologies are created

ever newer

coercive means

which before

humanity did not know

all

purely

technological

pessimism

political

pessimism today

we have a combination

sustainable

technological

optimism and

political

pessimism, we believe

that if rescuers

will come to this earth then

computer

algorithm but

Antichrist will clearly be

human robots

save this world if

its deputies do not

they will destroy this

strange combination

which earlier

sociologists do not

did not see

Today in Russia

is very

actively

return to

second to

delegation

I think many know

sad story there

this is on the right

that’s starting which

lost in the card no

neither in cards in g read

world title

on game in a year up to

recent times

the computer could not it

could not imitate

I successfully play but

that’s all now and

The Last Frontier

game in the year computer

make it the best of us

the girl on the left then I

kyle is her destiny yet

more curious about her

husband died in

he was

sergeant

armed forces united states

sniper and she

decided to help

his colleagues

developing both

developer

software

ensuring the

project to know

about smart trike smart-trike is

cleaning beer for

sniper

that is, you mark

he reads the target

Direction of the wind

remoteness he gives

tips to you

remains only

pull the trigger

actually two years

back to

competitions

organized

the national

rifle

association

then I’m a kyle and a girl with

but poor eyesight

armed smart raifle

won the best

the United States sniper

was armed with his own

loved by a rifle all

in this sense, we

delegated

billing function

key

question and what we are

delegate will take

two axes 1 you this

definition of a situation

alpha goal reading

situation on the board

navigator reads

smart road situation

raifl read

shooting situation

again speed

wind remoteness so

further so on so

then the second

implementation of the solution yes

that’s what

principled

the difference between that

kyle and alpha goal in the

that case with an alpha goal

he counts

situation on the board he

chooses the optimal

move and he does this

he takes the course

solution and implements

its a and in the case of smart

raifl you have to

pull the trigger

himself

we delegated

function of calculation is

what is called

comment on

we are

gave completely

algorithm but function

acceptance and implementation

solutions and we

delegate

always easy

delegate this to

game and when you need to

shoot or not

shoot here

still required

pull the trigger

another different story

then we, too, many

this story is known

ethical dilemmas

unmanned

transport in principle

here is this cognitive

Framing is

determination of the situation

unmanned

car is much

better than you

accordingly there

there is so one

problem if the grandmother

runs out onto the road he

will not have time to notice

even if you did not

managed to notice and he

have time to change

direction of travel

but then he will create

a life threat to the driver

and passengers if

drivers will know

that their unmanned

transport

programmed

In the way that

to save grandmother

which rushes under

they simply do not

will buy this

car

so that in

this situation

developers

brilliant solution

they stultify the algorithm

to the level of a person in

the moment when

my grandmother ran out to

his way abruptly

sit down function

determine the situation

Fleming and

and if you had time to do it

notice change

direction of travel

he will change but if

you did not have time to notice

and they did not change

respectively

direction of travel

he will crush it

sense of

google corr but only

partially

delegated

implementation of the solution

the same way

as an electronic

trader electronic

broker on some

market segments where

more recently, the average

expected life of the stock

on his hands was 4

years today

through the introduction

electronic

trading makes

4 seconds we

delegated

electronic broker

right to buy and

sell shares from

our name for these

four seconds he

can do

status or

lose your

state well, and such

the most painful

the theme is on these two

axes of delegation

of course two drones

people sit in

Nevada is a pilot and

gunner

understand the machine in

Afghanistan in

this combat mission and in

case if the machine

loses touch with

management center in

she should not

hang some

time to circle over

place of communication loss

then return to

base but also found out

recent

I investigate all

I recommend starting at

book of landmine

2015, which

called drones

of course they do not

programmed them

so that they

returned to the base

drones continued

the operation in

offline then

there are several

hundreds of people killed

machines

operating in

offline mode

who determines who

is a terrorist

but the decision-maker

and realizing it

solution therefore

although

theoretically we have

drones

should be here in

in general, they

already little

differ in degree

delegation from

algorithm

game of the goal but this

only two axes and

because there are 3 more

as you know

because the notion of

delegation to

sociology of technology

falls from

political theory

delegate this

means to represent

means transferring

someone has the right

act on your

name of the deputy is

delegate but today

smartphone much better

deputy than deputy

you are much more

believe much

tell more about

he knows about you

the more he acts

on your behalf is better

but there are 3 axes that axis

analogue of the judicial

power if it is

legislation and this

executive then here

with moral decisions

that is, the right to judge

This is what we yet

reverence

delegated

an exception is known

time machine which

issues fines for

then what is the shadow of your

car crossed

double continuous

know this story

here we are

only one thing

axis of the judiciary

given to the machines apparently

until she is very

copes but in

at some point if

those for optimism do not

fall and robot judge in

Novosibirsk by the way

one of Novosibirsk

the three most techno

optimistic

cities of russia he

loses the Tomsk

sorry but moscow

is not included in the

five as well as

Petersburg

so if this

trust level

technology will continue

trust level

Institute

about the nature of

must fall robot

the judge will be introduced

actually what is it

means for

legal theory

first of all the fact that we

in a second

most likely in the year 2050

I hate

futurists on the

Unfortunately

today I play on their

we will find ourselves in

situation from

delegation we

let’s move on to

authorization

authorization is

the next stage you know

why the pirates were tried

always stricter

than land

robbers because

that the pirates had

own constitution

PIN they had

taxes

deductions and in fact

they encroached on

sovereignty

ruler they

created

alternative

state with

an alternative

loyalty systems and

alternative

political body

because they were

worse for the sovereign

for example for the king

england

than land

robbers have

overland

robbers have

only delegation

they delegate

ataman for example

right of sharing

pirates have

authorization they

create a new

political body in

that second when

delegation will go

along the moral axis

excuses we seem

situation from

specific

agreements with

with your iPhone, then what?

he acts from my

name downloading

update we

we will pass situations

authorization

the creation of a new

political body

what will become of this

the moment with the concept

nationality

sovereignty and what

will be taxed

how will

a model

armed forces

which drones

the blow is not about without

warning their

pilots and we are still

We do not know this, but so

or started

explore this

the process will be insanely

I’m not sure

what will be the same

interesting to live in it

the world

Thank you

[applause]
