War Automation

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

In the world we have, sitting on the couch of our house, we seem to be able to do everything. With the keyboard, almost anything in the network that feeds on devices without moving is within our reach.

Have you ever heard the concept of the internet of things? It is the network that occurs when things (machines) get in touch with each other. There are many models of the Internet and there are those who imagine the Internet to make war more effective. In this war-created internet, tanks, drones, torpedoes, handguns, sensors, mines -- these are things that would happen.

We are seeing this model of war in Gaza, Israel has the opportunity to experience these technologies that it has been generating for years. War fueled by artificial intelligence is creating the internet of war devices, and war has become a more violent model of face-to-face confrontation, increasing asymmetry between the parties.

The people of Gaza are trapped. Sixteen's most effective technology in this war seems to be the network of underground tunnels. What other powers do we humans have to deal with the great influence that the current powered technology has on power relations? What should we learn from this conflict?

ARGIAk ez du zertan bat etorri artikuluen edukiarekin. Idatzien gehienezko luzera 4.500 karakterekoa da (espazioak barne). Idazkera aldetik gutxieneko zuzentasun bat beharrezkoa da: batetik, ARGIAk ezin du hartu zuzenketa sakona egiteko lanik; bestetik, egitekotan edukia nahi gabe aldatzeko arriskua dago. ARGIAk azaleko zuzenketak edo moldaketak egingo dizkie artikuluei, behar izanez gero.

To what extent should they be small farmers?

Much of the current left-wing movement, albeit intuitively, claims small-scale agriculture, without any doubt. However, this claim for smallness has its contradictions: a small farm, by definition, will not be able to produce a lot of food. And is that important? Well, in a... [+]


Euskaldunes

The spokeswoman for the new Basque Government, María Ubarretxena, gave the first interview to Euskadi Irratia. During the conversation he referred to his intentions, his general proposals, inevitably, because the government was going on. The tone between the journalist and the... [+]

Does eco-axism come to us?

The eco-social crisis generated by capitalism is causing global unrest across the planet. The "summits" of material and energy resources, establishing limits for growth and accumulation, entail imbalances between nature and society. The crazy wheels of extractivism, climate change... [+]


What we have to defend

One student told me once we studied a text: “The character is sick: the thought moves in his head.” Obviously, with this phrase, he misplaced the comment he had in his mind, that is, that the imbecility of the character was noticed in his continuous reflections. However,... [+]

Learning to say goodbye

Saying goodbye to something or someone is usually an act related to abandonment, the end and, ultimately, the grieving process. I'm sure you would ever, or you'd hear someone, tell them the typical, topical phrase of "I don't like greetings." And I don't want to fool you, not even I've... [+]

Territory and architecture
From here

Close the computer, put on chanclets, stroke with the sun cream. Where are you going on holiday? We've normalized that vacation is going somewhere, because rest needs distance, we say. And when we make the journey, we will become tourists, even if the change of denomination... [+]


Hysterical materialism
Scrap

The smell asked for a gesture, but since it had not done so (no other smell could be expected), neither did the others. “No, no, they’re not all. There are no living parts, I have not left anyone alive, for example, without lips (have you seen? ). They seemed perfect until... [+]


Need for renewable energy planning in the Basque Country

Conservative mentalities are afraid of the term planning, linking with progressive and even communist political currents, as the new authoritarianisms do today (Milei, Meono, Orban, Aznar, among others). However, the idea of planning is still in good health, at least formally... [+]


Meaka-Irimo is still alive!
A long time ago, a wind strike announced that a company was going to build a wind power plant on Mt. Irimo. Most people didn't believe it. Even less so are those who know the orography and the rocky character of Mt. Irimo. "But do you know what damage they would do by going down... [+]

The XIX Congress of Basque Studies Congress, behind closed doors

The issue of cohesion is today the first responsibility of many governments, public institutions and non-governmental organisations. Indeed, societies with low inequalities more easily generate conditions for economic, social and cultural development, better governance... [+]

The awkward truth of industrial policy

The global economy suffered a significant upturn following COVID-19. However, the signs that this increase has reached a stage of exhaustion are clearly conditioned by the climate crisis: the rate of economic growth of the major world powers, productivity is stagnating and... [+]

Yogurts in exchange

When I published my first book of poems, they offered me a recital at a university. The musician charged in money and I was given a book about Jorge Oteiza, which I didn't take because I was in my house. This was the first of the unacceptable requests that I have accepted. It was... [+]

What do you want to do in the future?

It seems that the sixteen-year-old is reflecting on the path that he will follow after high school. In one, he talks about the choice of the specific subjects of the baccalaureate, in the other, of the administrative steps that he will have to perform, without questions, through... [+]
