A BOOK BY DUDU GENTIL

A IA e Eu

A reflection on how to create, think and work alongside artificial intelligence while preserving human intention, judgment and responsibility.

The book inspired the movement Os Novos Pensadores, with an invitation: use artificial intelligence to expand our capacity to think.

This vision also guides dkind: more context, better questions and thoughtful choices.
