artificial intelligence, mental health, bodies, Latin AmericaAbstract
The article contributes to the contemporary discussion on the transformation of social bonds in Latin American societies. Evidence shows that in both academic and political agendas, Mental Health, the advancement of ICTs, and the rise of Artificial Intelligence pose challenges to the meanings attributed to the idea of the human, emotions, and the social construction of bodies. Latin America has the highest levels of inequality, particularly affecting children and women. Within this framework, access to and use of ICTs constitute a domain where inequalities persist and extend to other sectors of the population. Methodologically, the article is conceived from a dialogical-cartographic dimension expressed through teaching experiences and conceptual review.
