Reflecții asupra simbiozei problematice dintre om și tehnologiile informaționale

Abstract

The postmodern era is characterized by an explosion of information technologies, which together with energy technologies, have led to the creation of "mind machines": computer systems, computers and networks. In turn, they favored the "phenomenon of delegation", translated by the transfer of tasks, functions, activities, capabilities or even decisions that once belonged to man, information technology, the phenomenon being present in any society, no matter how complex. . Thus, this prerogative of technology has contaminated various areas of human knowledge, creating a considerable gap, which distances it from aspects of past cognitive activities. For this reason, thinking in technological terms is perceived as an intuitive structure of mental processes, which are able to create a logical framework in the acquisition, application and transmission of knowledge.
