Emily M. Bender e Alex Hanna spiegano perché le tecnologie vendute come "intelligenza artificiale" non sono una magia capace di risolvere ogni problema. L'IA di oggi è fatta di sistemi statistici su larga scala, che producono linguaggio e immagini senza comprenderli ‒ non un'intelligenza pensante ma «pappagalli stocastici». Le autrici ne sfatano i falsi miti e mettono in luce le insidie del loro impiego in ambiti chiave ‒ lavoro, sanità, giustizia, istruzione, scienza, arte e giornalismo.

A inteligência artificial já está entre nós. Criada à nossa imagem e semelhança, ela reflete e reproduz os padrões da sociedade. Portanto, é muito fácil deduzir que, se a IA aprende conosco, ela vai repetir não só nossas qualidades, mas também nossos defeitos. Isso significa que devemos temê-la? Estamos próximos das distopias de ficção científica quando falamos de IA? O que precisamos saber para lidar de forma saudável com essa tecnologia?

Artificial intelligence is moving fast—from experimental prototypes to real systems powering software, automation, and decision-making. Yet most AI projects never reach production. Fragile data pipelines, unstable models, and poorly designed architectures often prevent promising ideas from becoming real-world solutions. At the same time, a new generation of intelligent systems is emerging.

In early 2023, I had my first conversation with Claude. I asked it to help me understand quantum computing, and what followed was not just an explanation, but a dialogue—patient, thoughtful, and genuinely helpful. That moment marked the beginning of my journey into understanding not just what artificial intelligence could do, but what it could become.

Build AI Systems That Actually Work in Production. Artificial intelligence is everywhere — yet most AI projects never make it to real-world deployment. Why?

What do you do when nothing forces you to act? For hundreds of thousands of years, the environment answered that question for us. Hunger, danger, competition, and scarcity organized human behavior with merciless efficiency. Now, for the first time in evolutionary history, technology is dismantling the very pressures that gave us purpose—and nothing is replacing them. The result is what Boris Kriger calls the Stimulus Void: a world overflowing with information and capacity, yet strangely empty of reasons to begin.
