AI AS A MEANS OF PRODUCTION AND HABITAT: ALGORITHMIC POWER IN THE ERA TECHNOCRACY

The book examines the transformation of production and life as data, models, and algorithms become the infrastructure of social organization. By treating living bodies and labor as forms of energy transformation, the book points to a shift toward language labor, data, and AI as new means of production in the digital space. Algorithmic power does not operate through direct coercion but through invisible guidance: the distribution of attention, the routing of opportunities, the standardization of behavior, the personalization of experiences, the fragmentation of shared spaces, and increased dependency. Based on a technocratic critique, the book replaces opposing pairs for transformation: optimized and caring, precise and accurate, controlled and open, and convenient and autonomous. From there, the book proposes order as an open structure, justice as a process of correction, the right to be wrong as a condition of truth, and a valuable mechanism for transparency, appeal, inter-subjective responsibility, and the restoration of the rhythm of life. The goal is not to reject technology, but to restore AI to its role in promoting dignity, freedom and responsibility.
