PSYCHOANALYSIS AND SUBJECTIVITY IN THE ALGORITHMIC AGE: BETWEEN OBSOLESCENCE, LISTENING, AND THE REINVENTION OF SOCIAL TIES

This article examines the effects of artificial intelligence on the constitution of subjectivity, the modes of social bonding, and the symbolic value of the human in contemporary times. Drawing on psychoanalysis, philosophy of technology, and sociopolitical critique, it analyzes the delegation of psychic functions to the machine—such as memory, decision-making, and desire—and its impact on the domains of labor, language, and listening. By addressing the clinic of emptiness produced by algorithmic logic, the text traverses contemporary subjective impasses and proposes the reinvention of the bond as an ethical, political, and symbolic gesture. Along this path, the symptom is considered a trace of resistance, and the essay form emerges as a way to sustain the time of elaboration in a world governed by optimization. Between subjective obsolescence and the creation of new possibilities of existence, the text proposes listening as a critical operator of the present.
