Sažetak
Scientific discourse refers to triads as conceptual structures whose purpose is to emphasize the connection between concepts included in the description of a certain phenomenon. Famously, Popper's triad is comprised of the world of physical objects (World 1), the world of mental objects (World 2) and the world of objective knowledge (World 3), which can be thought of as all the products of thought - the world of information/knowledge, scientific theories, literature, etc.). During the past half-century, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) began rapidly changing our world on all levels. Using comparative analysis, this paper will examine the impact of ICT on Popper's Worlds 1, 2 and 3. As we will show, the modern age offers a new conceptual triad. It is not intended to stand against Popper's triad but to introduce new integral elements that intersect and interact with it – the world of physical objects is being replaced by the world of virtual reality (i.e., the Virtual World), the world of mental objects is replaced by transmental objects (i.e., the Transmental World) and the world of objective knowledge is being replaced by the world of digitized data/information/knowledge in the context of developing AI (i.e., the Digital World).
