    Editorial
    In 1997, artificial intelligence burst onto the scene with news that made the front pages of
    newspapers. It was reported that the DEEP BLUE robot had defeated the world chess champion
    Gary Kasparov. This event shook up the way technology was understood and incidentally, it
    reminded us that chess was the favorite medium to test artificial intelligence. Today, the power
    of that robot is surpassed by smartphones designed for use on a daily basis [1].

    More than two years after the start (and declaration) of the COVID-19 pandemic, its domino
    effect has not stopped and outbreaks of new variants emerge with certain periodicity.
    Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and summarize [2-4].

    At the closing of this editorial, the pandemic has caused 515 million infections and more than
    6 million people have died worldwide. To date, no intelligent software has been able to give us
    the date of the end of the pandemic. The outbreaks in countries like China and the upward
    curves in England collapsing the health system, show us a SARS-Cov-2 that is still highly
    active (with the sub variant omicron BA.2.12.1). It could not be otherwise since, in addition to
    its great capacity to mutate and produce more contagious versions, there are still many
    populations around the world with a low percentage of vaccinated people (or people who have
    not completed the entire vaccination program). This, in turn, further favors the transmission
    and spread of the virus. There is also a lack of reliable information from many places. The latter
    is a paradox since never before has there been a time with so much access to information and
    data [5].

    Data and More Data


    In our current society dominated by information and data - The Infocracy - as the philosopher
    Byung Chul Han says, it is difficult to deal with the veracity of the facts, their feasibility, the
    truth of what is said and what comes to be the Aristotelian truth. There are groups who from
    different trenches such as the anti-system, the anti-vaccine, or disseminators of fake news, try
    to seize power. The power of data. Whether it is true or not does not matter to them; they only
    care about getting the data to control, to chain to the digital cavern, that dark cavern in which
    a fatuous flame flickers.

    We seek truthful data. Today, the oracle of Delphi no longer exists, but there has been great
    advance in artificial intelligence (exponential advance they say). There is no doubt about its
    contribution in the fight against COVID-19. And in what way? I can mention some examples:
    classified and real databases; computational epidemiological models, predictive models of
    hospital occupation, artificial intelligence in advanced equipment that performs radiological
    examinations to "see" lungs infected with Coronavirus, contrasting false negatives to
    serological tests. And to add a "holistic" twist, that team of radiologists or other specialists
    came to see their patient by the best route to the hospital (route provided by an application on
    their phone that has Artificial Intelligence) [6-9].

    With the advance in technology today, where something new is discovered every day, it is not
    utopian to think of a date for the end of the pandemic.
    Although the end could have been sooner perhaps.

    In 2003, after the appearance of SARS (the first), a consortium of Texas laboratories worked
    on a possible vaccine. If it had been developed and; considering that the genome of SARS 1 is
    80% the same as SARS COV 2 (or COVID-19), it would have been a very powerful ally (if
    not to give an end date, at least to limit its effects). There is no need to recall the crazy and
    desperate race that this pandemic brought about to produce a vaccine in the year 2020, since
    the coronavirus found (as it almost always does) humanity completely unprepared and well, at
    that time, in 2003, nobody wanted to finance the idea of producing a vaccine. Today, many
    must be secretly regretting that decision. SARS COV 2 has generated much more damage than
    its predecessors, SARS 1, Avian Flu, Swine Flu and MERS in 2012 [9].
    Those are irrefutable facts. The numbers speak for themselves.

    If it were a chessboard, artificial intelligence will help us checkmate the coronavirus; and the
    post-pandemic world will erect it as a new God or the new Oracle. No longer the serpent God
    of the ancients, but the God of information, of data... the one who will guide our behavior and
    our relationships will it be so?
    Ray Kurzweil director of engineering at Google affirms: Artificial intelligence will be
    dominant and the future belongs to it-and his adds-it simply must be welcomed. But, will

    human beings be able to coexist with AI? Or at least be able to balance and classify the
    overwhelming amount of data and not develop or foster superstitions? Superstitions such as: if
    you click on certain tabs or wear certain clothes, the algorithms will favor you; or if you wake
    up at a certain time you are doing the right thing. In short, a medley of artifices. The human
    brain must be strong to resist temptations and refined to create formulas, formulas that consider
    details, that look back on what failed in the past, and add a number of precise instructions to
    reach the goal, and that in the end, create a good algorithm for what is face-to-face and digital
    (a mixed post-pandemic world?).

    In 2022, there have been almost no more quarantines but problems are far from over. More
    waves of waiting lists in public health are coming. Diseases were left untreated in order to
    attend the urgent needs of the pandemic. In addition, the lists will further increase due to the
    neurological sequelae and worsening quality of life in patients who fell ill with COVID-19 (see
    prospective study published in The Lancet Respiratory in the United Kingdom on April 23,
    2022). To make matters worse, now we must add the Russian invasion of Ukraine, with the
    consequence of death and destruction and forced migration of millions of Ukrainians thus
    creating new human and health problems as well. Concerning the latter, I would like to say that
    hopefully one day soon, AI will generate an algorithm that inactivates any weapon or war
    machine if the targets are human.

    The post-pandemic challenge will be that new links will have to be remade or created, hand in
    hand, of course, with artificial intelligence. For those nascent links, there will be new data
    classifications; algorithms available to deploy whether on a game board, trading desk, or in the
    reconstruction of a city. And if to the sum of all the correct data we add ethics, it will not matter
    if we continue to lose at chess with the machines [10,11].
