Cultural dominants of the computer-mediated communication

Abstract

The most notable obstacle to the evolution of artificial intelligence is not as much the lack of technical equipment of computers as many of their «inability» to take into account the context and cultural features of human communications. Computer-mediated communications create a new environment of the discourse, peculiar both technically and humanitarian, in particular, linguistic aspects. Issues of structuring and systematization of the content and form of the «big data» that are stored in the virtual dimension require adaptation of major achievements from the humanitarian sphere to new communication circumstances. The obvious and requested resource in this context is the knowledge on the correlation of language components and culture qualities. An artificial intelligence is now unable autonomous from person to pose and solve problems. So its presence in the field of communications is due to already established by laws of the cultural environment. Thus, computer-mediated communications would be carried out according to the rules of human culture, the essence of which is the language.
