The human, the god, and the algorithm: the moral dilemmas of superintelligence
Abstract
The article explores the moral dilemmas generated by the emergence and development of artificial superintelligence, analyzing the relationship between humans, technology, and fundamental ethical values. Starting from the idea that algorithms are no longer mere technical tools but active agents in the process of communication and reality construction, the study examines the philosophical and moral implications of automated decisions. It argues that superintelligence redefines the informational space and social relations, challenging human freedom, responsibility, and dignity. In a world dominated by algorithms, philosophy and ethics become indispensable for ensuring a balance between technological progress and the common good. The conclusion emphasizes the role of the human as a guardian of meaning and the need for digital education centered on critical thinking and civic awareness.
