This article describes what could be the phenomenology in the digital age. It studies morphetic and hyletic components of consciousness. I present two new types of reductions - hyletic and morphetic. The hyletic reduction requires that one avoid forming raw material into morphe. The hyletic experience shows the unity of consciousness and the world. In this unity we cannot separate ourselves from the world. The morphetic reduction is the experience of consciousness that avoids using words. The morphetic activity allows selecting color data, sound data, tactile data, etc., shape of objects. Thus, the object can be given in three different channels of information - hyletic, morphetic and social. Many information processes in a human brain are qualitative, i. e. morphetic. Morphetic experience emerges because there is a backup program that allows organisms to copy behavior patterns of other individuals, if the genetic mechanisms are failing. Qualia are operators of the copy program; it is meta-hyletic because it aims at hyletic process. Speech digests as well as other behaviors. Then the words are used in the information processes in a brain to correct hyletic activity. Phenomenology can also solve the traditional questions of philosophy through the consideration of being as information channels

This article focuses on the methodological basis for the criticism of the computationalism and “computer metaphor” in the philosophy of cognitive sciences. We suppose that the computational paradigm is the direct consequence of the theoretical confusion of phenomenal and cognitive kinds of experience. Cognitive processes, considered as the forms of computational description, are available for computer modelling. That implies the strong position of the computer metaphor in the neuroscience. In our opinion the key problem is the vague ontological nature of the symbols which form the computational operations in the cognitive procedures. Despite the successful development of neuroscience, it is still impossible to explain the meaning of the content of mental states. The article provides the detailed analysis of the critical approaches to the computational models of consciousness. The special attention is given to the comparison of data integration in the artificial intellectual systems with semantic aspects of the phenomenal consciousness. In the first case the foundations of output are the hierarchy of classes, the rules protocols and applying heuristics and strategies. In the second case the knowledge is formed by qualia, metaphorical conceptualization and pragmatic level of communication. Natural principles of knowledge forming are unachievable for machine intellectual procedures

The article analyzes the transformation of subjectivity in conditions of the information society. Socialization that shapes the subjectivity and intelligence converges to techno-socialization. Cognition strengthened by new information and communications technologies becomes the technology of information processing. It is shown that in the information technology areas of epistemology the subject of knowledge, cognition and intelligence are considered from the standpoint of technological determinism. The structure of the subject is conceived as a set of tools aimed at processing of information. The increasing use of intelligent systems in various types of human activities, as well as the automation of intellectual activity lead to the formation of mixed, hybrid cognitive tools set and to changing the type of rationality. Further article analyses the relationship between intelligence and subjectivity, and the impact of this relationship on the formation of philosophical and methodological problems of development of the intellectual robotics. Formation of an intellect is a formation of subjectivity. Author analyzes the direction of the evolution of approaches to modeling of intelligence in cognitive science. Article tackles the philosophical and methodological aspects of the problem of subjectivity in connection with the development of intellectual robotics

The specificity of five main connectionist systems is considered. Connectionist model of computation deploys minimal (irreducible) model introduced by the author in the first part. It is a synthesis of neural network models, cellular automata and distributed system, based on the works of Rosenbluth, Rosenblatt and Rummelhart respectively. As part of the proposed model two-stage (inspiration / expiration) concept of connectionist computing systems operation is introduced. The model is equally suitable for discrete and continuous time but closer to the latter in terms of formalization. The attention is focused on the aspects of decentralization, non-directionality, activity and selectivity (in elements) of computability. We propose the concept of active layer, which follows from the separation of unit state into two components: conditionally - “data” and “action flag” / “choice”. Occurring in the active layer processes determine largely the entire computing process

The terms «information» and «data» were introduced as purely engineering and utilitarian, though, it quickly started to be used in common speech, different scientific areas and appeared as a philosophical categories, due to it’s potential range of application. Wherein, the border of usage between these two words is erasing, they often mentioned as equals. In this article the history of appearance, fundamental attributes of these entities and formal approaches for understanding of the information’s and data’s quality nature are described and the following contradiction is shown. There is a thesis about ontological inequality, stating that the information is only in subjective existence, while data’s existence has an objective base. For the first half of the this thesis, there are described methods of approximated representation of components of consciousness, that, together with the way of demarcation of original terms, lead us to conclusion: information is fundament of subjective existence, the element, which all the subjective consists of. For the second part, there is a statement about connection between data and matter, and about the negation of data’s and material substance’s equality. Also, there are methods, spawned by the given view on subjective and objective nature

The article discusses the social aspects of intellectual robotics development. It is shown that the growth in the application of technologies of intelligent control and information processing in various types of human activities opens a new stage in the development of robotic systems. Robotic systems are used to automate labor that is difficult or hazardous to human health. However, the proliferation of intelligent robotic systems begins to significantly affect people productivity, as well as their lifestyle and worldview. Increasing the level of intellectualization of the robotic systems brings robotic systems into the field of human interaction. Robots are transforming from tools of labor into the subjects of social life. The trends in the development of intelligent robotic systems are discussed. Positive and negative social consequences of robotic systems development are examined in the economic, political, cultural and social realms of society. The necessity of socio-humanitarian expertise in development of robotic systems is justified. The article also shows prospects of social integration of multi-agent robotic systems

The article is devoted to visualization. It presents a philosophical attempt to justify the linguistic and the visual language of photography. The main difference between photos from other images is not a reproduction of objects of reality and their fixation. At the time of the shooting man captures the act of existence of objects in reality, their position and interaction in space. In the language through the sign system is fixed idea about the realities of the world. In the act of thinking expressed in a verbal language, it was a combination of ideas about the world, and in the act of existence, is recorded by the camera, it was a combination of themselves the realities of their number and interaction to a specific unit of time. The article puts forward the assumption of existence of communication, accumulation and cognitive functions of the visual language of photography (the latter is the understanding of the act of existence of objects and their interaction in the picture). Attempts to resolve the question of the subject and the predicate in a visual statement. The article also identifies the possibility of a functional approach to the language of photography, theoretically justified the existence of levels of language in photographic images, their possible field structure. Extends the interpretation of the notion of modality in the visual statement
