Sophisticated technologies allow us to solve many problems, although, due to the imperfection of social relations and human nature itself, these technologies are very often used against humans. Wide opportunities for that are provided by Strategic Psychological Warfare (SPW), which aims at the development of a particular institution, country, or the international system as a whole, in a way that has a desirable direction for the leading actor. SPW uses various channels and means of targeted, systemic, long-term impact on the development of social systems. The role of advanced technologies in SPW is difficult to underestimate. Many phenomena and techniques fit into the fabric of SPW. The mechanism of using radio and television for such purposes is well known and the Internet has been well mastered for this purpose, but we have a much worse notion of the use of advanced technologies, such as Big Data, AI, etc. within the framework of SPW. It is equally important to know what promising technologies can enhance psychological warfare abilities in the foreseeable future. Today insufficient attention is being paid to the comprehensive analysis of the issues of the Unstable Dynamic Social Equilibriums (UDSE), which are especially vulnerable in the context of random and targeted negative impacts in the field of High-Tech SPW. The hypothesis of the current study is that sophisticated technologies raise the SPW to a qualitatively new level, which requires an adequate assessment and reaction, not only from the military institutions, but from society as a whole. The methodology of the research is based on a systematic approach to the role of sophisticated technologies in SPW. Comparative analysis and the method of case studies are helpful to obtain the findings which offer the basics for criterion of efficiency of High-Tech SPW and sample key capabilities and features of modern SPW in influencing the unstable dynamic social equilibriums.
