Quasi-Viral Technologies as the Drivers of the Economy Digital Transformation Towards sustainability

Анотація

The relevance of the article is related to the phenomenon of quasi-viral technologies, which are the drivers of the phase transition to sustainable development. The study is aimed at defining the category “quasi-viral emerging technology”, as well as the disclosure of their content and form, and the analysis of the features in the conditions of digital transformations. The research method is based on the analysis of transformational changes in the components of the trialectic mechanism of the reproduction of socio-economic systems, which occur under the influence of quasi-viral sustainable technologies. The article defines the quasi-viral process of spreading emerging technologies as a transformational process of the informational component replacement within the technological base by methods imitating the course of viral infection. The signs of quasi-viral processes are formulated on several levels: “infection” due to a change in the information algorithm; substantial user preferences; lack of sufficient barriers; significant potential to increase users; and disruptive efficiency. Signs of quasi-viral technologies have the following types of innovations: renewable energy, 3D printing, electric transport, energy storage, IT technologies, digital recording of information, cloud technologies, etc. The authors hypothesize the possibility of using entropy estimates as the only measure of approximating the results of the implementation of quasi-viral technologies to the state of sustainability in society and nature. The expected results of the spread of quasi-viral technologies can be significant dematerialization of industrial metabolism, provision of functions of self-organization and self-improvement of social systems, preservation of biodiversity and ecosystems of the planet, and formation of the foundations of sustainable development.
