description <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Objective. </strong>Identification of formation vectors of technologically completed personality and analysis of the specificity of identity of its different types through the prism of opportunities and risks of its construction.<br><strong>Background. </strong>The Fourth Industrial Revolution is gradually bringing us to the frontier of the steady transformation of the human being into a being increasingly connected to technology. Smartphones, computers, the Internet of Things, and AI assistants, which form an integral technosystem that mediates the everyday life of man, are complex cultural tools that become his complements and extensions &ndash; part of the personality. A new type of personality, technologically completed by advanced digital tools, is formed as the most important result of the modern stage of social and cognitive evolution of the human psyche in the conditions of digital transformations. Identity as an integrative personal formation is a key phenomenon for understanding the possible psychological transformations of a modern person in the conditions of convergence of online and offline worlds and determining the risks of various options of metamorphoses of technologically completed personality. <br><strong>Methodology. </strong>Externalist approaches to the study of a person (L.S. Vygotsky, E. Clark, D. Chalmers, L. Malafouris, etc.), the socio-cognitive concept of digital socialization (G.U. Soldatova, A.E. Voyskunsky), concepts and approaches to the analysis of identity (E. Erikson, K. Rogers, I. Hoffman, G. Tajfel, J. Turner, S. Moscovici, J. Marcia, etc.). <br><strong>Conclusions. </strong>The vectors of technologically extended personality are identified through the following types: digital natives, techno-conservatives, techno-isolationists, cyborgs, personoids, digital centaurs. Their main characteristics are described and the specifics of identity and possible risks of its development for each type are analyzed. One of the pre-adaptive vectors of identity transformation is the transition from digital natives-donors to digital centaurs.</p>
