This study critically examines the instrumental rationality that underlies the contemporary development of artificial intelligence, articulating the concept of epistemic efficiency within the framework of an epistemology of efficiency. Through a qualitative methodology based on the content analysis of theoretical texts, key tensions are identified between the automation of reason and the ethical principles that should guide emerging technologies. The results show how the hegemony of technical efficiency displaces critical reflection and collective deliberation. The discussion delves into the limits and contradictions of this dominant rationality, while the conclusion proposes a deliberative ethics as a normative horizon and proposes future lines of research aimed at rethinking the epistemological and ethical foundations of technological development.
