Artificial Intelligence in Transdisciplinary Communication Paradigm for Digital Education
Abstract
Transformative shifts in the knowledge economy of the XXI century, Industry 4.0 and Web 4.0 development and elaboration of networked society, emergency digitization of all social communicative spheres due to pandemic measures have imposed pressing revisions onto interdisciplinary and cross-sectorial job market demands of university level education, curriculum design and learning outcomes. As a product of modern civilization, digital reality has become an independent format of being. Accordingly, electronic media act not only as a means of transmitting information but also reveal their own world-creating, meaning-making, and, as a consequence, communicative potential. The global digital realm stands as an integral environment, demanding new cognition and perception ways via complex philosophic, cultural, social, and linguistic approaches, providing unlimited opportunities for human intellect, communicative development, and research. The seminal overview of meta-trends, changing the world by Snyder identified universal connectivity as a transcendent premise of technological trends development. Through the span of the following predictive Global Trends frameworks, provide the hindsight in the lens through which technological growth and advances features in the global development trendsetting. The sub-trend of the technological society development is manifested through the elaboration of an interdisciplinary paradigm of Digital Humanities - a diverse, open for augmentation, transdisciplinary range of areas of knowledge, applied activities and education in Arts and Humanities, centered on digital adaptation, production, processing, manipulation and dissemination of relevant thematic content: Digital history, Digital philology, Digital art, Digital education, Digital sociology, Digital music etc. Transformative shifts in the knowledge economy of the XXI century, Industry 4.0 (AI-powered technologies and production) and corresponding stages of Web technology development (from Web 2.0 - social media interaction, to Web 3.0 - Internet of things, to Web 4.0 - machine learning powered interaction, LLMs, to Web 5.0 - intelligent personal agents), development and elaboration of networked society and new media ecology, emergency digitization due to quarantine measures and the ongoing warfare have imposed pressing revisions onto interdisciplinary and cross-sectorial job market demands. The context of the erupted military intervention in Ukraine and the ensuing information warfare in various digital ambients (social media, news coverage, digital communications), the specific value is allocated to the enhanced role of digital humanism as a tool of the internationally broadcast strife for freedom and sovereignty. © 2024 by the International Institute of Informatics and Systemics.
