Intuition and Algorithms: Dilemmas of Modern Cognition

This article provides a profound analysis of the relationship between human intuition and modern algorithms in cognitive processes. The author contrasts the concepts of "thin slices of reality" and the adaptive unconscious with formal expert systems, pointing to their role in assessing authenticity and value. The article unmasks the mechanisms of naturalization of inequality and Harding's fallacy, demonstrating how unconscious stereotypes can be perpetuated by AI technology. Through case studies of the Greek kouros and the Implicit Association Test, the article sheds light on the problem of indirect discrimination and structural blindness. This is crucial reading for understanding the ethical challenges associated with implementing artificial intelligence in a society where the petrification of prejudices is becoming a real threat to social justice.
