Artificial Intelligence and Radical Ideologies in Brazil: Confronting Big Hate Through Critical Thinking

  • Paulo da Silva Quadros

摘要

The chapter aims to discuss how radical ideologies in Brazil have been widely used to stimulate a culture of hate in a broad sense through the resources of social networks and other communication and information platforms. And, consequently, how this can reflect a risk of promoting toxic discursive biases in AI tools, which can dangerously affect part of the information base perceptions. Unless a continuous practice of critical and analytical thinking begins to substantiate new social and educational relations in the context of society under the aegis of generative AI enhancements. Strategies to encourage critical thinking, if well implemented, can help us move away from widespread hate speech, including by not reinforcing biases that may be brought about by current artificial intelligence tools. By avoiding reinforcing biases, it is possible to break free from practices that offend human dignity. Methodologically, the work in question is based on a theoretical approach, crossing philosophical-reflective references with governmental agencies and journalistic material collected from Brazilian newspapers, magazines, and TV news programmes. Such data serves to broaden the theoretical repertoire, aiming to explore the relationship between everyday sociocultural life and its possible consequences for artificial intelligence, with its undesirable hate biases.
