La década de 2020 (pronunciada "veinte-veinte" o "dos mil veinte"; abreviada como " los años 20 " y también conocida como " los años veinte ") es la década actual que comenzó el 1 de enero de 2020 y finalizará el 31 de diciembre de 2029. [1] [2]
Hubo mejoras significativas en la complejidad de la inteligencia artificial , con empresas, universidades y laboratorios de investigación estadounidenses siendo pioneros en avances en el campo . [8] Las aplicaciones basadas en IA generativa como ChatGPT y DALL-E han acumulado miles de millones de usuarios y permiten a los usuarios generar instantáneamente textos, imágenes, arte y videos complejos, comparables a la sofisticación del trabajo humano, por lo que modelos como GPT-3 y Stable Diffusion han demostrado capacidades notables para generar texto, imágenes y otros contenidos creativos de calidad humana. Por ejemplo, GPT-3 puede escribir artículos, poemas e incluso codificar, mientras que Stable Diffusion puede crear imágenes muy realistas a partir de indicaciones de texto simples. [9] También se han realizado otros avances tecnológicos que han impactado a muchos, como el uso generalizado de teleconferencias , aprendizaje en línea , servicios de transmisión , comercio electrónico y servicios de entrega de alimentos para compensar los bloqueos ordenados por los gobiernos de todo el mundo durante los primeros meses de la pandemia de COVID-19. Recientes aplicaciones de redes sociales en Internet como Threads , BeReal , Clubhouse , BlueSky , Gettr y Truth Social se lanzaron e introdujeron tipos recientes de redes sociales, como contenido basado en audio y de formato corto, progresando aún más en la tecnología digital . También surgieron formas de arte, como NFT . Las redes 5G también se lanzaron en todo el mundo a principios de la década y se volvieron frecuentes en los teléfonos inteligentes . La investigación en el espacio exterior se aceleró enormemente en la década de 2020, con Estados Unidos dominando principalmente la exploración espacial , incluido el telescopio espacial James Webb , el helicóptero Ingenuity , Lunar Gateway y el programa Artemis . [10] [11] La realidad virtual (VR) y la realidad aumentada (AR) se están utilizando para colaboración, reuniones y capacitación a distancia. Por ejemplo, la VR se puede utilizar para crear espacios de reunión virtuales donde las personas pueden interactuar entre sí como si estuvieran en la misma habitación. La AR se puede utilizar para superponer información digital sobre el mundo real, lo que facilita que las personas colaboren en proyectos. Pagos sin contactoAdemás, los monederos electrónicos se han vuelto más comunes y ofrecen opciones de pago cómodas y seguras. La pandemia también aceleró la adopción de pagos sin contacto, ya que la gente comenzó a preocuparse más por la propagación de gérmenes. Los monederos electrónicos, como Apple Pay y Google Pay , también se han vuelto más populares, ya que ofrecen una forma cómoda y segura de pagar bienes y servicios. [ cita requerida ]

Las personas de bajos ingresos tenían más probabilidades de contraer el coronavirus y morir a causa de él. Tanto en la ciudad de Nueva York como en Barcelona, los barrios de bajos ingresos se vieron afectados desproporcionadamente por los casos de coronavirus. Las hipótesis sobre por qué fue así incluían que las familias más pobres tenían más probabilidades de vivir en viviendas abarrotadas y trabajar en empleos considerados esenciales durante la crisis, como supermercados y atención a personas mayores. En los Estados Unidos, millones de personas de bajos ingresos pueden carecer de acceso a la atención médica debido a que no tienen seguro o tienen un seguro insuficiente . Millones de estadounidenses perdieron su seguro médico después de perder sus empleos. Muchos trabajadores de bajos ingresos en empleos de servicios se quedaron sin empleo.
La pandemia de coronavirus fue seguida por la preocupación por un posible aumento de los suicidios, exacerbado por el aislamiento social debido a las pautas de cuarentena y distanciamiento social, el miedo, el desempleo y los factores financieros. Muchos países informaron de un aumento de la violencia doméstica y la violencia de pareja atribuida a los confinamientos en medio de la pandemia de COVID-19. La inseguridad financiera, el estrés y la incertidumbre llevaron a un aumento de la agresión en el hogar, y los abusadores pudieron controlar gran parte de la vida diaria de sus víctimas. La crisis de la mediana edad es una preocupación importante en materia de violencia doméstica, implicaciones sociales y suicidios para los adultos de mediana edad en medio de la pandemia. El Secretario General de las Naciones Unidas, António Guterres, pidió un "alto el fuego" en materia de violencia doméstica y crisis de la mediana edad.
