Title: Els cobots i la condició humana arendtiana: condicions de possibilitat per a la generació d’associacions afirmatives entre cobots i humans
Author: Rubio García, Carlos
Tutor: Bueno Junquero, Adrián
Abstract: This essay is a philosophical analysis of the conditions of possibility for the generation of affirmative associations between cobots and humans. The study starts from Arendt's conceptualization of human beings in her book The human condition (2022) and, more specifically, from the three fundamental activities, labor, work, and action, which constitute, according to the author, vita activa. The methodology used in this study follows the procedures of academic philosophy, which include the formulation of precise questions, conceptual analysis, and a comprehensive review of existing literature. Through rational argumentation and critical dialogue, answers to the research questions raised will be proposed. The main research question is whether cobots can open a way to overcome the Arendtian human condition, facilitating the construction of a new subjectivity that allows us affirmative association with the many others. In order to give a more comprehensive and systematic answer to this question, we have divided the study into three parts. The first chapter analyzes the conditions for the possibility of action and participation in the public space of cobots. Then, in the second chapter, work and work activities are considered, and how they are affected by the appearance of cobots. Once the previous questions have been addressed, in the third chapter, the ethical and political challenges of collaboration between cobots and humans are raised. The work concludes with some reflections on the conditions of possibility for the creation of positive links between humans and cobots that guide us towards a common world in which our human reality is not separated from the world in which we live and the interactions that we maintain with others.
