Em editorial, os especialistas Nathália Azevedo e Paulo Santos alertam que a IA generativa reforça desigualdades e consome muitos recursos. Os autores defendem debate crítico sobre seu uso na pesquisa científica
jornal.usp.br
Na área de educação em ciências, inteligência artificial tem sido usada sem referencial ético
Repetição de linguagem acrítica, apagamento da origem das ideias, reforço de vieses, preconceito e desigualdade são alguns riscos potenciais, indicam pesquisadores

I’m Still Here just won the Oscar for Best International Film. A true story of political repression set in 1970s Brazil, it has chilling resonance in 2025 USA. Still in theaters. This film is spectacular. Don’t miss it.

Genetic determinism is a fallacy. While genes are important, environmental, social factors, and our choices play a major role. Genetics and environment interact in complex ways—our future isn’t set by genes alone www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Science is political. It wouldn't necessarily have to be partisan. But when one party is opposed to science-based policy, scientists have a choice between saying "you're right, thoughts and prayers are probably as effective as reducing carbon emissions" or saying "fuck that."

my dear students. I don’t believe in many universal truths but here’s one: AI’s got nothing on the writer you already are & the writer you’ll become if you keep working at it. it’s hard work but it’s worth it, I promise.

We need to have deeper conversations about the care of elderly individuals. It’s essential to recognize the immense burden placed on families and their role in providing support. Balancing caregiving with personal well-being is a challenge that deserves more attention and understanding.

I've been reflecting on how important it is to respect the timing of ideas in #academicWriting 🍃 Sometimes, the right idea just isn't there yet, or it's not fully developed... How do you know when it’s time to push forward or step back? #AcademicSky @academic-chatter.bsky.social

Neoliberalism harms everything it touches. It obscures ethical values, distorts human relationships, and superficializes scientific production. It commodifies education and, by gradually eroding ideals, makes people unwell.
