The article provides a rationale for the need to study the impact of artificial intelligence on the economic security of each individual enterprise in particular and the country as a whole. The main reasons and advantages of the widespread introduction of systemic artificial intelligence in various spheres of human activity have been determined. The author gives promising directions for using artificial intelligence, such as machine learning, speech analysis, virtual assistants, machine vision, expert systems, and the like. The areas of application of artificial intelligence in various areas of the economy, such as trade, marketing, industry, transport, banking and telecommunications sectors, are outlined. The author identifies a number of threats and difficulties that a person faces in the process of introducing artificial intelligence, namely: low level of data protection; features of the technology of the artificial intelligence system; an increase in the amount of data that is processed, sorted and stored; preconceived judgments about artificial intelligence due to poor-quality training; a low level of communication, which can be traced in the process of interaction between a person and a system, and the like. For each of the designated types of risk, possible measures are proposed, thanks to which the negative impact of artificial intelligence on the economic security of Ukraine is counteracted. Also, the article contains a number of difficulties that are associated with the peculiarities of the work of artificial intelligence systems. The author cites research showing that artificial intelligence is able to increase productivity growth, but it can also have an ambiguous effect on labor. The article also touches on ethical issues related to the use of artificial intelligence.

Abstract Purpose of Review To summarize the set of roboethics issues that uniquely arise due to the corporeality and physical interaction modalities afforded by robots, irrespective of the degree of artificial intelligence present in the system. Recent Findings One of the recent trends in the discussion of ethics of emerging technologies has been the treatment of roboethics issues as those of “embodied AI,” a subset of AI ethics. In contrast to AI, however, robots leverage human’s natural tendency to be influenced by our physical environment. Recent work in human-robot interaction highlights the impact a robot’s presence, capacity to touch, and move in our physical environment has on people, and helping to articulate the ethical issues particular to the design of interactive robotic systems. Summary The corporeality of interactive robots poses unique sets of ethical challenges. These issues should be considered in the design irrespective of and in addition to the ethics of artificial intelligence implemented in them.

Trends in the development of the main components of financial and economic security of the country indicate their significant variability and dependence on a combination of internal and external factors. An important place among the drivers of influence on the level of financial and economic security is occupied by tax revenues. Given the prolonged national and transnational market turbulence, which is observed in most sectors of the economy, one of the biggest threats to the financial and economic security of most countries is the presence of a significant volume of shadow operations. The consequences of their implementation are the lack of tax revenues in the budget and the reduction of the country's financial viability in financing economic development programs. The purpose of the article is to study the impact of tax gaps on the level of financial and economic security of the country. In the paper, the essence of the financial and economic security of the country, which is proposed to be understood as a complex concept, integrates the features of economic and financial development of the economic system. Based on the systematization of scientific literatures, the main tasks and functions of financial and economic security of the country including realization of goals and objectives of financial policy and formation of favorable conditions for economically sustainable development and growth, highlights the characteristics of this concept are substantiated. The paper identifies three characteristic features of the financial and economic security of the country: as an indicator of its ability to protect the interests of society in a volatile external and internal environment; economically sustainable development and growth; leveling threats to the internal and external environment. The role of tax gaps in reducing the level of financial and economic security of the country is substantiated, the probability of formation of tax gaps in the economy is predicted, measures to minimize tax evasion as components of increasing its financial and economic security are proposed. The established interdependencies should serve as a basis for the transformation of state economic and financial policy in Ukraine in terms of minimizing the negative impact of the shadow sector of the economy on the indicators of economic development of the state.

The article considers the approaches to the interpretation of the category "shadow economy", which causes a variety of approaches to assessing the impact of the shadow economy on the socio-economic development of Ukraine. The spread of the pandemic and the complication of economic conditions, formed as a result of the introduction of forced restrictive measures, have led to the growth of the shadow economy in Ukraine. The index of shadowing of the economic sphere in relation to the inflation index and the level of the state budget deficit has been studied. The factors that led to the shadowing of the economy and caused the growth of the share of the shadow sector in the economy of Ukraine are highlighted. The main components of shadow employment are identified. Business entities operating in the shadow sector have significantly more competitive advantages and much higher efficiency than legally operating businesses. As a result, such enterprises are an obstacle to the flow of funds to the budgets of all levels of the country, and as a consequence, have a negative impact on socio-economic development in general. In recent years, state budget expenditures have been growing too slowly, which indicates a high level of shadowing of the economy in conditions of high inflation and, consequently, negatively affects the socio-economic security of society. Budget expenditures are closely linked to public policy, which allows the state to curb the level of economic shadowing through measures to reform relevant areas. It is investigated that the State budget expenditures grow too slowly, which indicates a high level of shadowing of the economy in conditions of high inflation. The paper substantiates the reasons for the growth of the shadow economy and identifies the main measures to reduce shadow employment, the manifestations of which are the deformation of social and economic institutions of the state. The de-shadowing of the economy provides citizens with the right to social protection, in the form of social guarantees in case of unemployment, temporary incapacity for work, accidents or occupational diseases during official work, pensions, etc.

The economic security of the agricultural sector is related to the economic security of the state and the economic security of individual enterprises operating in this sector of the economy. The important component of economic security of agricultural sector is personnel and intellectual security, which should be ensured through the preservation and development of the intellectual potential of the enterprise and the effective work of the staff. The aim of the study is to develop theoretical and methodological foundations of the formation of personnel and intellectual component of economic security of the agricultural sector. The following methods were used in the study: dialectical method of cognition of economic phenomena, abstract and logical, analysis and synthesis, generalization. The article uses the results of expert assessment, which was conducted in accordance with the Methodology of expert assessment of the impact of individual factors on the economic security of agricultural enterprises, which has been developed by the author. The obtained results show that among the internal threats to economic security, threats related to the personnel and intellectual component (nonprofessional management of the enterprise; low level of qualification of employees; low level of employee motivation; outflow of skilled workers) occupy a prominent place. Theoretical bases of forming the mechanism of regulation of personnel and intellectual safety of the enterprise are offered. Counteraction to the threats of the personnel and intellectual component of economic security should be based on the following measures: raising the professional level of management of agricultural enterprises; provision of qualified personnel; stimulating the staff to self-development; conducting an effective youth policy with the aim of attracting young professionals in the agricultural sector; forming a sense of a unified team in employees; creation of an effective system of social support for employees; introduction of an effective and transparent system of motivation and incentives for employees, based on clear criteria for evaluating the activities of employees. Further perspectives for research in this direction should be the formation of the strategy for economic security of the agricultural sector of Ukraine, which is based on the study devoted to the management of the mechanism of regulating personnel, intellectual and other components of economic security.

The paper addresses the impact of disruptive technologies on the sport ecosystem, represented by four constitutive elements: athletes, coaches, judges, and fans. In particular, the paper argues that to understand the changes introduced by Artificial Intelligence, biotechnologies, and other disruptive technologies, we have to look at this sport ecosystem as a whole and ask ethical questions related to how each of these elements—and not just the athlete—is affected by them. The paper discusses some of the real-life applications of disruptive technologies that are being currently introduced within different sports and works out their most critical aspects both in terms of positive and negative impact on the sport ecosystem as we know it.

As the coronavirus pandemic spread from Asia to the western world, drug discovery came to a near standstill. Most laboratories shut down and instruments and reagents were left untouched, except for the most essential work. The pandemic forced large and small companies, regulatory and government agencies, and academia to tap into technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), for providing more than just speed and efficiency. This essay aims to dig deeply in complexity theory to help improve safety and reduce the impact of the next pandemic. It is based on implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to provide the safer complex theory with an example of the current situation of COVID-19. While there are no shortcuts around scientific rigor and experimentation, AI can certainly accelerate the discovery of new drugs particularly when combined with high-performance computing (HPC) and quantum computing. Evaluating new AI technologies, particularly in areas of drug discovery where there are few demonstrations of success, can be a real challenge. It is considered that safety improvement of alert systems and the risk factors, in order to organize the safety of health facilities and control the hospital environment before the potential pandemic develops. Here, we will try to apply complexity theory in our dealing with future pandemics based on the situation analysis of previous experiences.

Relevance: Since 01 January 2020, the provision of radiation therapy (RT) at Almaty Oncology Center was optimized using the Visual Care Path (VCP) tool of the ARIA 15.6 oncology system, which supports the implementation of sequential and parallel mandatory procedures – from patient registration to completion of treatment. The purpose was to study the impact of the implemented artificial intelligence system on RT effectiveness, safety, the share of complex RT techniques, and measure staff satisfaction and proficiency. Results: The share of intensive modulated radiation therapy sessions changed from 39.3% in 2019 to 46.6% in 2020. After the implementation of VCP, timely pre-irradiation preparation of patients (centering, delineation, dose prescription) by department doctors increased from 76% to 91%, OR = 3.2; timely measurements of plans increased from 85% to 96%, OR = 4.7; the frequency of major events (the ratio of plans with errors or unsuccessful plans to the total number of plans, delineation of organs at risk and targets, dose prescription) decreased from 12% to 3%, OR = 4.5; the frequency of minor events (late notification of the patient of the treatment commencement, timely transition to the next stage of patient preparation for treatment decreased from 32% to 10%, OR = 4.5. Staff proficiency in VCP has increased by 75%. Following the anonymous survey results, 85% of staff reported a positive impact of VCP on the workflow. Conclusion: The share of complex methods of RT has increased by 7.3%. The implementation of VCP significantly increased the workflow efficiency – by 3.9 times, reduced the number of major and minor events by 4.4 times. It allowed using a paperless communication with the executor’s identification at each stage of RT. The new technique was also quickly adopted and favorably accepted by the staff.

The paper describes and justifies the possible dangers of artificial intelligence to human psychology. The manifestations of this danger in the modern world are illustrated by examples. Authors formulated and proved the hypothesis that under the influence of artificial intelligence on a person some changes in the ways of human thinking are possible. A mathematical model for calculating the influence of artificial intelligence on the psychological parameters of a person is proposed. In order to control the influence of artificial intelligence on society authors suggested to formulate specific goals for the integration of artificial intelligence into society, taking into account the negative impact of this intelligence on human psychology. Based on the formulated goals, a simple mathematical model is offered. This model allows for a quick numerical assessment of the impact society on the "psychology" of the robot and vice versa. Simple example of calculating this influence in modern society demonstrates the work of the proposed model.
