The Alphabet of the Future : The Synthesis of Technology and Humanism | | | | Turtles AI
FUTURE ALPHABET : TECHNOLOGY AND ONGOING WEB TRANSFORMATIONS
In today’s landscape, technology is no longer just a tool, but a part of our environment, like the air we breathe.
Pandemic has acted as an accelerator, catapulting us into a future where the digital and the real are inextricably intertwined.
This fusion has highlighted the need for new knowledge, a science that combines technical and humanistic skills to govern the complexity of the changes taking place.
THE OMNIPRESENT TECHNOLOGY
We imagine technology as an invisible network enveloping the world.
This network not only connects people, but also ideas, values and cultures.
It is like a new alphabet that we must learn to read and write.
The omnipresence of technology requires new skills : it is no longer enough to know how to program, we must also understand the social, ethical ecultural implications of our creations.
THE SYNTHESIS OF SKILLS
Like an alchemist trying to turn lead into gold, we must combine the exact sciences with the humanities.
An example is Artificial Intelligence : to develop and use it ethically, we need engineers who collaborate with philosophers, sociologists, and psychologists.
Only then can we create systems that not only work well, but also respect human values and promote the common good.
NEW AND TRANSFORMED OBJECTS
Modern technology creates objects that are radically new or transforms existing ones in ways that were unthinkable just a few years ago.
Think of social media that began as simple platforms for connection that have since become spaces for political debate, marketing, and even disinformation.
Their evolution requires a deep understanding not only of their technical workings but also of the social and psychological dynamics that govern them.
THE FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY
The future of technology is a book yet to be written, and we are its authors. As architects of this new world, we must be aware of our responsibilities.
Technology must serve humanity, not vice versa.
For this, it is important that technical knowledge be accompanied by a strong humanistic component. Only in this way can we ensure that the ongoing transformations lead to a more just, equitable and sustainable world.
In conclusion, the knowledge of the future is hybrid knowledge, a new science that combines technology and humanism to meet the challenges of a world where technology is omnipresent.
Like sailors navigating uncharted waters, we must be ready to learn, adapt and innovate, with the compass of human values always firmly in our hands.
