The author examines a cognitive shift in understanding the subject-object interaction that takes place in modern epistemology due to the development of cognitive technologies being an integral part of NBIC convergence. Special attention is paid to the philosophical concept of artificial intelligence. The author gives examples of fast development of artificial narrow intelligence and also of forthcoming so-called artificial general intelligence. It has been reasoned that the purpose of cognition under such circumstances is not the description of the objective reality, as the subjective shifts more and more to the artificial under the influence of modern technologies, but a definite arrangement of its subjective perception. It means the perfection of cognitive models allowing a subject to capture the reality. Such a supposition is completely confirmed by the autopoiesis concept by H. Maturana and F. Varela and the neurobiological constructivism by G. Roth. The author has concludes that the borders of a cognition subject are blurred as a result of erasing strict borders between natural and artificial.
