Digital transformation of cities. Future plans and risks

Abstract

The essay expresses an opinion about the inevitable risks of the process of digital transformation of cities. Digitalization of the living environment and lifestyle affects all spheres of human activity not only in a positive way. This inevitable process is an objective reality, and the speed with which it occurs does not allow us to realize all the risks and prepare for their neutralization. It is assumed that a dialectical understanding of this process with an analysis of the negative consequences will help determine the acceptable framework for digital transformation.
