ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AT THE INTERSECTION OF TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS AND HUMAN VALUES

The article examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in modern society not only from the perspective of its technical capabilities, but also in terms of its intersection with human morality, ethical norms, and emotional intelligence. The study analyzes AI's achievements in automating economic production and manufacturing processes, as well as issues such as unemployment, social inequality, and information security. Furthermore, it is argued that AI cannot fully replace human reason and creativity, and that it is merely a tool controlled by humans. The article provides scientific and theoretical justification for the necessity of aligning AI with human values.
