Just as forest peoples developed wisdom to navigate waters, we need to learn to navigate this digital &#8220;info-tide&#8221; for our survival and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Critical Thinking in the AI Era<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With 20 years of AI experience, Miguel Lannes Fernandes shares practical cases illustrating the importance of critical thinking. He tells of a student who wanted to use AI for homework, redirecting him to use the tool creatively &#8211; like interviewing historical characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Efficiency versus Learning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An MIT study revealed an interesting paradox: while groups using AI solved problems faster, they remembered less of the process and learned less than groups without AI. Miguel Lannes Fernandes concludes that &#8220;AI serves efficiency, but learning requires inefficiency and mistakes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personal Experiences and Lessons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Miguel Lannes Fernandes shares a revealing experience where AI invented non-existent &#8220;Newton&#8217;s laws&#8221; while helping him write an article, highlighting how technology can produce convincing but incorrect content. He also mentions a student who used AI to &#8220;confirm&#8221; Capitu&#8217;s betrayal in Dom Casmurro, losing the beauty of literary ambiguity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI in Service of Humanity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reflection culminates with a lesson from Miguel Lannes Fernandes&#8217; own son about contemplating sunsets. He configured an AI robot to summarize news, freeing time for essential human moments. The message is clear: use AI to automate tedious tasks and have more time to exercise our humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The key insight is that AI, being human-created technology, can help us become more human &#8211; depending on our perspective and approach to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=C38xlWnkezQ&#038;ab_channel=TEDxTalks\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=C38xlWnkezQ&#038;ab_channel=TEDxTalks<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miguel Lannes Fernandes, AI director at EXAME, explores artificial intelligence as a &#8220;river of bits and bytes&#8221;
