Authors

Mara Romero Acuña Universidad EAN ,

This text aims to analyze the impact of new technologies on the behavior of contemporary humans. To achieve this, the following thesis was defended: the automation of work seeks the destruction of being. This was made possible through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the impact of automation in the labor world. Initially, a hypothesis was proposed where the way we perceive ourselves as humans changes due to technologies created by ourselves. Secondly, the hypothesis was tested through extensive research
that brought statistics into our daily lives. Subsequently, the cause of automation and its connection to capitalism were investigated. As a result of this methodology, the thesis was defended and aims to raise awareness about our current and future actions.
