| KRATKA VSEBINA | Scientific discourse refers to triads as conceptual structures whose purpose is to emphasize the connection between concepts included in the description of a certain phenomenon. The famous Popperʼs triad is comprised of the world of physical objects and processes (World 1), the world of mental objects, i.e. subjective human experience (World 2) and the world of objective knowledge (World 3), which can be thought of as all the products of thought - the world of information, knowledge, scientific theories, literature, etc. During the past half-century, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and new media began to change our reality on all three levels. Using a comparative analysis, this paper will examine the impact ICT and new media have on the Popperʼs World 1, 2 and 3. As it will be shown, the modern age offers a newconceptual triad the aim of which is not to stand against the Popperʼs triad but to introduce new integral elements that intersect and interact with it. In this new triad the world of physical objects is being replaced by the world of virtual reality (i.e. the Virtual World), the world of mental objects is replaced by transmental objects (i.e. the Transmental World) and the world of objective knowledge is being replaced by the world of digitized data/information/ knowledge in the context of developing AI (i.e. the Digital World). These new architectonic elements build new conceptual structure the aim of which is to define, describe and represent new interrelated concepts essential for better understanding of todayʼs totality of reality. They form new ontology of the world which describes reality as inseparable from the concepts of information and technology // Znanstveni diskurz obravnava triade kot pojmovne strukture, katerih namen je, da poudarijo povezavo med pojmi, s katerimi je opisan določen pojav. Znamenita Popperjeva triada je sestavljena iz sveta fizičnih objektov in procesov (Svet 1), sveta mentalnih objektov (Svet 2) in sveta objektivnega znanja (Svet 3), pod katerim lahko razumemo vse produkte mišljenja - svet informacij, znanja, znanstvenih teorij, literature itd. V zadnji polovici stoletja so informacijska in komunikacijska tehnologija (IKT) in novi mediji spremenili vse tri ravni naše realnosti. Članek analizira vpliv IKT ter novih medijev na Popperjev svet 1, 2 in 3 z uporabo metode primerjalne analize. Kot prikazuje članek, moderna doba prinaša novo pojmovno triado, ki ne nasprotuje Popperjevi triadi, pač uvaja nove integralne elemente. Ti elementi se z njo križajo ter so z njo v interakciji. V tej novi triadi je svet fizičnih objektov zamenjan z virtualno realnostjo (tj. virtualni svet), svet mentalnih objektov je zamenjan s trans mentalnimi objekti (tj. trans mentalni svet), svet objektivnega znanja pa je zamenjan s svetom digitaliziranih podatkov/informacij/znanja v kontekstu umetne inteligence (tj. digitalni svet). Ti novi arhitektonski elementi gradijo novo pojmovno strukturo, ki cilja na definicijo, opis in predstavitev novih med seboj povezanih pojmov, ki so bistveni za boljše razumevanje sedanje totalne realnosti. Predstavljajo novo ontologijo sveta, ki opisuje realnost, ki je ne moremo ločiti od pojmov informacije in tehnologije. |
