Digital Personality Modeling Technologies: Epistemological Critique and Risk Analysis from the Perspective of Philosophy of Science

This article provides an interdisciplinary critical analysis of ambitious projects for the total digital modeling of the human personality from the perspectives of philosophy of science and technology. The study focuses on the epistemological boundaries and anthropotechnical risks of such initiatives. The author systematically argues that the fundamental nature of the human "Self" — its narrative integrity, dynamic temporality, dialogical constitution, and systemic irreducibility — creates insurmountable epistemological barriers to comprehensive digitization. Despite their capacity to reveal behavioral correlations and patterns, digital models are inherently incapable of representing the essential core of personality as a meaning-generating and evolving reality. This fundamental limitation of digital modeling, combined with the illusion of its comprehensiveness, generates significant anthropotechnical risks. These include the restriction of personal autonomy through mechanisms of algorithmic "loops" (e.g., in credit scoring or the formation of informational "echo chambers"); the exploitation of digital profiles for subtle manipulation and cyber threats; identity distortion under pressure from algorithmic conformity and dissociation; and the exacerbation of social inequality alongside the concentration of power in the hands of data and algorithm holders. In response to these challenges, the article proposes a system of interconnected ethical imperatives for the responsible development of anthropotechnologies. Key principles encompass the principle of epistemological modesty, requiring the rejection of speculative promises of modeling completeness; the principle of non-reduction and the prioritization of personal integrity over technological expansion; ensuring algorithmic transparency and user agency; protecting mental integrity through the development of neuro-rights; and finally, the precautionary principle coupled with the necessity of interdisciplinary coevolution, implying the integration of philosophical reflection into technoscientific development. The central conclusion emphasizes the irreducible asymmetry between the living personality and its digital representations, asserting that a truly humanistic technological future depends on recognizing these boundaries and developing ethical frameworks that safeguard human dignity and autonomy.
