What if the greatest risk of digitalization and AI were not their potential, but our fear of understanding and mastering them? AI frightens us, and algorithms terrify us. All technology has its dark side and its pernicious uses; but rejecting it will not make us freer, but weaker. Human nature is inherently technological. Without the biface, fire, the printing press, or electricity, we would not be who we are. Digital technology and artificial intelligence are just another milestone for our species. Digital technology shapes our way of life and our relationships with others. We have equipped ourselves with tools possessing capabilities that were unimaginable just a few years ago. They have increased our well-being, allow us to communicate with our loved ones across great distances, and facilitate work and daily tasks... Why do we condemn them? In these pages, Pablo García Mexía does not ignore the risks, but he warns us of a greater danger: that blind fear will stifle our capacity to innovate and condemn us to a sort of new pre-modern fanaticism. In Praise of Digital Reason is a lucid and necessary work; a manifesto in defense of the reasonable use of that which has allowed us to achieve many of our greatest milestones as a species. The potential of AI remains to be discovered, and it is our generation's duty to create the necessary frameworks to govern it and put its virtues at the service of humanity. Because technology does not make us less human; it is what allows us to be human.
