I invite you to read this short science fiction story, where the year is 2048 and Latin America is unified under the name of the Union of Socialist Bolivarian Republics of Latin America, also known as USBRAL. In this society, technology governs everything and everyone, but most people are not aware of it. People are evaluated by an impersonal artificial intelligence that determines their value and minimizes it. This apparently fair system, built on a superficial meritocracy, perpetuates an endless cycle of poverty and servitude. The AI controls education, the job market, and even people’s happiness through state social networks. Dissident voices are silenced, and people are divided into rigid class hierarchies, leading to a life of poverty and deprivation for the majority. This dystopian future is painted in vivid detail, and the reader is left to contemplate the consequences of a society governed by machines.
