Abstract: Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have radically transformed the world in the 21st century. From the digital revolution to the expansion of the internet and social networks, these tools have deeply integrated into daily routines, altering the way people work, communicate, relate, and learn. In the workplace, ICT has created new opportunities with the emergence of remote jobs, automation of processes, and the rise of entire industries based on technology. Likewise, communication has undergone a metamorphosis with the immediacy provided by digital platforms, redefining the notions of distance and time. In the social sphere, information and communication technologies have modified personal interactions and the ways in which they are built and maintained. Education has been innovated with the introduction of online learning platforms, democratizing access to knowledge and promoting continuous and flexible training. Despite these benefits, the advancement of ICT also have challenges, such as the digital divide, which separates those who have access to technology from those who do not. Additionally, concerns arise regarding privacy and information security. Therefore, technologies offer enriching benefits accompanied by challenges that require attention and reflection to effectively manage this new era of digital connectivity.
