hermeneUTikára

HermeneUTikára is a theoretical framework and methodological approach within the field of hermeneutics that emphasizes the crucial role of computational and technological processes in the interpretation of texts and phenomena. It posits that understanding, meaning-making, and the construction of knowledge are increasingly shaped by, and indeed mediated through, digital tools and algorithms. This perspective acknowledges that while traditional hermeneutics focuses on human understanding and the historical context of interpretation, hermeneUTikára extends this to encompass the impact of artificial intelligence, data analysis, machine learning, and other computational methods on how we interpret and generate meaning.

The core idea is that the "hermeneutic circle," the process of understanding the whole by understanding its parts and vice versa, can be augmented and transformed by computational power. This means that the interpretation of complex datasets, the identification of patterns in vast archives of text, or even the generation of new creative content through AI, all fall within the purview of hermeneUTikára. It does not seek to replace human interpretation but rather to analyze and understand the new modes of interpretation that emerge when humans and machines collaborate or when machines operate autonomously in interpretative tasks. This field also explores the ethical and epistemological implications of these computationally-driven interpretative processes.
