Hacia una ética relacional de la responsabilidad. Un marco ético para el diseño tecnológico en la teoría de la mente extendida

Abstract

This paper addresses the ethical challenge of how certain technologies, when integrated as extensions of our mind, profoundly transform our autonomy, privacy, and subjectivity, blurring the boundaries between the human and the artificial. While these tools can expand our cognitive capabilities, they also pose risks such as manipulation, dependency, and erosion of mental privacy. One of the main challenges is to define who should assume ethical responsibility in this context of human-technological interdependence. To respond to these tensions, a relational ethics of responsibility is proposed, based on the Theory of the Extended Mind. This framework, based on the principles of clarity and autonomy, interdependent responsibility and justice, and ethical foresight and beneficence, seeks not only to guide the design of technologies that respect human dignity and strengthen critical capacity, but also to equitably distribute responsibilities among the different actors involved.
