El presente artículo tiene como objetivo reflexionar acerca de un tipo de ideología que ve en los avances tecnológicos la solución a todos los problemas de la humanidad, y comprender cómo los algoritmos computacionales delinean comportamientos y prácticas cotidianas que configuran una cultura algorítmica. La reflexión se enmarca dentro de la relación entre técnica y sociedad. La larga discusión en torno a dicha relación se ha encargado de exaltar únicamente los beneficios de los avances tecnológicos, dejando de lado el pensamiento crítico que posibilite reconocer las implicaciones sociales, políticas, económicas y culturales que se generan a partir de estosThis article aims to reflect on a type of ideology that considers technological advances as the solution to all of humanity’s problems, and to understand how computational algorithms delineate everyday behaviors and practices that shape an algorithmic culture. The reflection is framed within the technical–social relationship, a long-standing discussion, in which certain discourses have exalted only the benefits of technological advances, leaving aside the critical thinking that makes it possible to recognize the social, political, economic, and cultural implications that are generated from them.
