Introduction: the physical and technological transformations of the modern world are accelerating due to the theory of technological singularity. This phenomenon indicates that the time between fundamental technological discoveries is shortening. In the context of such a dynamic development of technology, the existing law does not always have time to adapt to new challenges, which pushes for the need to revise legal norms and introduce new concepts. The purpose of the work is to explore fundamental issues related to the impact of technological singularity on human rights as well as to propose a new concept – human cyber rights. Methods: the methods of theoretical analysis and comparative jurisprudence were used in the course of the study. The analysis of literary sources on the research topic was carried out, including the works of scientists and jurists dealing with philosophy of law, technology, and human rights. The methods of logical analysis and synthesis were also used to identify the connections between fundamental concepts and develop a new concept. As a result of the study, the main problems associated with the lag of law from technological progress have been identified. The concept of human cyber rights has been proposed, which includes the rights of an individual in the digital space. The need to adapt legal norms to new challenges, such as the rights of scanned persons and ensuring data security in the digital space, has been discussed. The study has confirmed the need to revise the legal norms in the light of technological singularity and proposed a new concept of human cyber rights as a way to adapt law to the challenges of digital transformation. Further research in this area can contribute to the development of more flexible and effective legal mechanisms to ensure the protection of human rights and freedoms in the era of the digital revolution.
Key words: technological singularity, human rights, person, transhumanism, brain modeling, cyber rights, digital transformation.
