Abstract

This article covers the high demand for the science's forecasting function at the present stage. The impetuous progress of NBIC technologies sets a task of finding the ways for reasonable management of experimental and practical developments. The work notes that the need for development and comparative analysis of various options of the foreseeable future at all the levels of the biological and bio-social reality puts a special emphasis on both scientific and technological and humanitarian expert evaluation. It is stressed that the existence of a variety of real and hypothetic factors posing a threat to humans and mankind at large assumes the formation of a responsible and careful approach with clear understanding of consequences.
