Resumo: | It presents the big data context and its relationship with scientific knowledge from the following question: Does the extraction of information from large volumes of data represent an epistemological change for science in general? The general objective is to reflect on the epistemological implications of the big data context based on the propositions of epistemologist Karl Popper. Specifically, the objectives are: a) to discuss the theoretical implications of science in the field of epistemology; b) to talk about the concepts of what was conventionally called "big data"; c) analyze the possible impacts of the big data context on scientific knowledge. Methodologically, it is an exploratory and descriptive study of a theoretical character to assist critical reflection about the big data phenomenon and its consequences for the scientific practice of any area of ??knowledge. As a result, a critical analysis is presented about a phenomenon little studied in the epistemological aspect. It is concluded that the big data context has revolutionized the decision-making processes in companies, but it is not possible to say that the same revolution occurs in the epistemological aspect. |

El objetivo general es reflexionar sobre las implicaciones epistemológicas del contexto del big data a partir de las propuestas del epistemólogo Karl Popper. Concretamente, los objetivos son: a) discutir las implicaciones teóricas de la ciencia en el campo de la epistemología; b) hablar de los conceptos de lo que convencionalmente se denominó "big data"; c) analizar los posibles impactos del contexto de big data sobre el conocimiento científico. Metodológicamente, se trata de un estudio exploratorio y descriptivo de carácter teórico para ayudar a la reflexión crítica sobre el fenómeno del big data y sus consecuencias para la práctica científica de cualquier área del conocimiento. Como resultado, se presenta un análisis crítico de un fenómeno poco estudiado en el aspecto epistemológico. Se concluye que el contexto del big data ha revolucionado los procesos de toma de decisiones en las empresas, pero no es posible decir que se produzca la misma revolución en el aspecto epistemológico.Apresenta o contexto big data e sua relação com o conhecimento científico a partir da seguinte pergunta: A extração de informações de grandes volumes de dados representa uma mudança epistemológica para a ciência de forma geral? O objetivo geral é o de refletir sobre as implicações epistemológicas do contexto big data a partir das proposições do epistemólogo Karl Popper. Especificamente, os objetivos são: a) discutir as implicações teóricas da ciência no campo da epistemologia; b) discorrer sobre os conceitos do que se convencionou chamar de “big data”; c) analisar os possíveis impactos do contexto big data ao conhecimento científico. Metodologicamente, trata-se de um estudo exploratório e descritivo de caráter teórico para auxiliar a reflexão crítica acerca do fenômeno big data e suas consequências para o fazer científico de qualquer área do conhecimento. Como resultado apresenta-se uma análise crítica acerca de um fenômeno pouco estudado no aspecto epistemológico. Conclui-se que o contexto big data tem revolucionado os processos de tomada de decisão nas empresas, mas não é possível afirmar que a mesma revolução ocorre no aspecto epistemológico.Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências2020-12-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/1093610.36311/1940-1640.2020.v14n4.10936Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 14 No. 4 - out-dez (2020); e020017Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 14 Núm. 4 - out-dez (2020); e020017Brazilian Journal of Information Science: research trends; v. 14 n. 4 - out-dez (2020); e0200171981-1640reponame:Brazilian Journal of Information Scienceinstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/10936/6930Copyright (c) 2020 Eugênio Monteiro da Silva Júnior, Cezar Karpinski, Moisés Lima Dutrahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva Júnior, Eugênio Monteiro daKarpinski, CezarDutra, Moisés Lima2022-01-04T19:41:41Zoai:ojs.revistas.marilia.unesp.br:article/10936Revistahttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/indexPUBhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/oaibrajis.marilia@unesp.br||1981-16401981-1640opendoar:2022-01-04T19:41:41Brazilian Journal of Information Science - Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP)false |
