Digital transformation sets the vector of structural changes in the Russian and world economy. Currently, the most and least likely elements of digital transformation at the level of the real sector have been identified. Against the background of the ongoing spread of a number of important elements of the digital economy, well-defined threats to cybersecurity are identified and natural intelligence is degraded. It is expected that the structure of employment will undergo major changes. Technological changes provoke fundamental changes in the society, — its appearance in the future can not only be presented in the light of techno-optimism. Scenarios that reanimate very dark futuristic prophecies in the past can become a modern reality. The unfolding digitalization assumes the solution of fundamental issues of development management. Successful co-evolution of social, technical and natural systems requires going beyond the entrenched economic paradigm.
