Is Technology at the Service of Humankind?

Abstract

The answer is not a trivial one. While technology has allowed the human race to live longer, it has given us weapons of mass destruction. It is a fact that technology has improved communications but, on the other hand, it has increased the distance regarding interpersonal relationships. Although nowadays it is quite easy to find evidence to solve previously unsolved problems, we live in the society so soaked by fake news that in some cases, only an artificial intelligence (AI) can detect it.
