Abstract

The article examines the socio-economic problems associated with a decrease in employment and, accordingly, the loss of income of a significant part of the population as the widespread automation and robotization of various processes grows, which can create social tension. It analyzes the fact that new technologies not only allow, but also stimulate the transition from mass production to subject-oriented production based on specific individual orders, at an acceptable cost for the consumer, and trends in society contribute to this. It is concluded that this will allow solving the problem of employment of the population and increasing the socio-economic status of workers, since the fulfillment of individual orders will require a significant number of creatively thinking individuals who cannot be replaced by robots. will increase the intellectual potential of society, significantly reduce social inequality, increase the level of well-being and social satisfaction. At the same time, the role of robots, and cobots, to a large extent adapted to interacting with people, as an intellectual tool of a person, should be aimed at freeing people from monotonous work, while preserving the most valuable thing that a person has time to carry out creative activities. As a result, it is assumed that the current situation provides opportunities for the formation of a new socio-economic structure, characterized by the transition from a society of mass consumption of goods to a society of consumers of individual subject-oriented products and creating the basis for the formation of a society of Creators.
