In the novel “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley (1894-1963), those in control realized that force does not work and that it is possible to enslave people by temptation and force them to live in an artificial society, in which the idea of the biological family is abolished, and in which there is no one to think or suffer or long for someone. People became categorized into groups, no one takes religion seriously anymore, no one reads Shakespeare, and no one misses these things except the hero of the novel. In a society in which human nature has changed, and its members no longer feel miserable because they are no longer humans according to the natural concept, the world has become unreal in a way more severe than they can imagine. For this reason, they do not know that they have been dehumanized, and even if they know it, this doesn’t matter. They became slaves and are satisfied with it. This critical image of technology that the novel reflects is suitable as an introduction when talking about the latest wave of artificial intelligence tools, specifically generative artificial intelligence, and the questions it poses that affect the future of a creative profession such as journalism in its broader sense.
