Summary:This article delves into the sense and not the degree of technological progress. We will show that a deepening of the meaning and not the degree reveals edges of technological progress that lead to non-sense. That is, the higher the technological grade the less the sense: it means, there is a de-grade of the sense. Based on Plato's myth of the cave, the method of the present reflection alludes to the degradation of the sense of the knowledge: knowing more about the shadows, ignoring that they are shadows, ends up annihilating the very sense of knowledge. Therefore, we explore from a hermeneutic of shadows the meaning of technology as a shadow rather than as a truth.
