¿Tienen Derechos los Algoritmos?
![](https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/public/journals/12/cover_issue_917_es_ES.png)
Resumen
La creciente influencia de los algoritmos en la sociedad digital plantea interrogantes sobre su estatus legal y ético. A medida que estos algoritmos toman decisiones que afectan a las personas, surge la pregunta de si deberían tener derechos y cómo se pueden proteger esos derechos en un entorno tecnológico en constante evolución. La investigación llevó a cabo un análisis documental exhaustivo de literatura, informes y documentos legales relevantes sobre la ética de los algoritmos, así como investigaciones sobre sus impactos sociales en áreas como la privacidad, la discriminación y la toma automatizada de decisiones. Los hallazgos revelaron que actualmente no existe un consenso claro sobre si los algoritmos deben tener derechos. Sin embargo, se reconoce la necesidad de establecer regulaciones y principios éticos para garantizar su uso responsable y evitar consecuencias negativas. Se identificaron desafíos clave, como la transparencia algorítmica, la discriminación y la privacidad de los datos, que requieren atención adecuada. La regulación y la transparencia son fundamentales para garantizar que los algoritmos sean utilizados de manera justa y equitativa, de modo que protejan los derechos individuales y sociales.
