HERE IS A NEW TWIST: WHAT THREATENS THE PRODUCTIVITY PARADOX OF THE DIGITAL ECONOMY?
Digital transformation processes have become an objective reality. Of course, they have their own unique characteristics in relation to different countries of the world. However, their key patterns and numerous undeniable advantages for economic systems have already been proven. However, the current stage of digital development is fraught with a whole range of contradictions, manifested in the slowdown of the world's economies, the decline in the human development index, and the emergence of the productivity paradox. On the basis of data on the dynamics of digital development and analytical data of research companies, the authors identify the reasons for the slowdown in the growth of productivity of factors of production in countries with Mature economies and developing countries of the world. The authors try to answer the question: why the economic opportunities of economic systems of the world's countries that are expanding due to the use of new technologies do not provide a change in the paradigm of the new economic reality.
