Abstract

The world of today has been facing an incredible variety of opportunities along with unseen before challenges and potential dangers, the latter rooted both in the unpredictable capabilities of IT and artificial intelligence and untamed human rivalry. The research methodology is qualitative, including discourse and content analysis, literature review and conceptual modelling, along with hypothesis testing and theoretical generalization. The paper unfolds the authors’ professional perception of the CPS integration in business organizations (primarily smart organizations) and highlights the challenges facing the mankind in the near future, including the danger of potential rivalry between humans and artificial intelligence within or beyond CPS. The paper offers the authors’ conceptual model of organizational management in the 21st century, based on systems approach and the notion of the CPS integration in business organizations in the near future and a ground for further discussion within the contemporary systemic paradigm and socio-economic cybernetics as its integral part.
