Emerging technologies: Conceptions and educational challenges in the transcomplex global world

This paper develops a critical reflection, from a transdisciplinary and transcomplex perspective, on the strategic role of technological development, with particular emphasis on Artificial Intelligence (AI). The analysis addresses the construction of AI mythologies, the phenomenon of cognitive digital neocolonialism, and the so-called “pedagogy of boredom” as key elements shaping contemporary educational contexts. From a qualitative and interpretive approach, the study proposes a theoretical analysis grounded in transcomplexity, articulating documentary, dialogical, and reflective dimensions. As a result, it introduces an irreverent educational model aimed at harmonizing technological innovation with human values and critical thinking. This reflection contributes to the academic debate by promoting a shift from passive technological adoption toward a more critical, ethical, and emancipatory educational praxis.
