Today, January 1st, 2026, I launch my new book (By: David Ascensio), born from the research of emerging technologies and the deepest love a human being can know.
It is dedicated to my daughter Selene, eternal light—a presence that transcends time and guides my every step, even in her absence. Selene is not just a memory; she is a living force that drives me to look toward the future with responsibility, sensitivity, and hope.
A World Automated by AI is not solely a work about technology, innovation, or intelligent systems. It is a testament that, even in a world dominated by algorithms and automation, love remains the most powerful engine of transformation. Selene taught me—in her brief but infinite existence—that true intelligence lies not only in the capacity to process data, but in the capacity to feel, to care, and to transcend.
I dedicate this book to her, to my family, and to all those who believe that progress should not distance us from our human essence. This project was not built in solitude: we built it together as a team, with the conviction that technology can and must be at the service of life, memory, and the common good.
I am grateful to Dr. Eduardo Carrión, Editorial Director of Doctor EduCa—part of the architecture of EDUCA International Intelligence and the Intelligence Educa University of Mexico—for making the publication of this fourth book possible, a work so special for my life and for the education of the future.
Let us remember that to transcend is not just to move forward; it is to leave a meaningful mark. If this book succeeds in inspiring reflection, awareness, and humanity amidst the digital age, then Selene will continue to live in every idea, in every reader, and in every decision made with love and purpose.
Selene, this book is for you.
