At the beginning of March 2021, the fourth edition of the A.I. Index 2021 Annual Report, a comprehensive yearly analysis of the major transformations happening in artificial intelligence, was released by the Stanford University’s Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence Institute (HAI).

This year, Standford University dramatically increased the amount of data available in the study, partnered with a broader range of external organizations to calibrate our data. It deepened relations with Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI).

The A.I. Index Report monitors, distills, and visualizes data related to artificial intelligence, offering impartial, rigorously vetted, and internationally sourced data for policymakers, academics, executives, journalists, and the general public to gain insights into the complex field of A.I.

The report points to be the world’s most credible and authoritative source for data and insights about A.I.

The report authors include Daniel Zhang, Saurabh Mishra, Erik Brynjolfsson, John Etchemendy, Deep Ganguli, Barbara Grosz, Terah Lyons, James Manyika, Juan Carlos Niebles, Michael Sellitto, Yoav Shoham, Jack Clark, and Raymond Perrault.

We can see in the report that the top three industries with the highest A.I. adoption in 2020 were high-tech and telecommunications, automotive and assembly, and financial services, respectively, and the Top 3 countries with the highest A.I. skill penetration are India, U.S., and China, respectively.

The report points out also the ethical challenges of A.I. applications, exploring how A.I. transparency, explainability, accountability, and privacy are frequent themes in constructing ethical guidelines and frameworks.

I’ve just gone through the fourth edition of the Deloitte AI Institute’s “The State of AI in the Enterprise” survey.
It is impressive how it investigates the more profound transformations occurring within organizations using AI to drive value to understand what the most “AI-fueled organizations” are doing to drive success.
The report surveyed 2,875 executives from 11 Americas, Europe, and Asia between March and May 2021.
It explored how AI-powered organizations are using data as a resource to systematically deploy and scale AI across all types of core business processes in a human-centered manner.
This report helps us have a more accurate view of the leading practices aligned with the marketplace leaders across industries.
The report’s key findings help us understand how to overcome challenges to becoming an AI-fueled organization, regardless of the stage of AI transformation we are in, and primarily to assist those earlier in their transformation.

Building bridges between Diversity and Inclusion and Enterprise Data.
Medium
October 12, 2021

Diversity and inclusion in the workplace have been widely promoted in recent years, to the point where it may appear unnecessary to justify them further.
However, as we face a global crisis that may hinder these advancements, it is critical to remember that, rather than being a “luxury,” diversity can be the key to business resilience.
The development of diversity and inclusion policies brings many benefits, ranging from improved performance to a significant increase in innovation.
According to a recent survey conducted by global management consulting firm McKinsey, ethnic diversity within companies increased the likelihood of “superior financial performance relative to the local industry average” by an average of 36% in 2019.
Gender diversity yielded a similar result, with diverse organizations performing a quarter better than the local industry average.

Lawmakers approved the Foundations and Principles for A.I. in Brazil.
Medium
October 11, 2021

The Chamber of Deputies approved Bill 21/20 on Wednesday (29th), which establishes the foundations and principles for the development and application of artificial intelligence in Brazil and guidelines for the promotion and performance of public authorities on the subject. The issue will be referred to the Senate.
The House has outlined guidelines for developing and deploying A.I. in Brazil. In addition, the bill will regulate transparency regarding the use of A.I. in the public sector, encourage the development of A.I. for the public sector, and require the “adoption of regulatory instruments that promote innovation.”
To account for the already-integrated innovation in society and the regulations introduced by Artificial Intelligence, a structured view on rights, duties, and responsibilities is required.
According to the text, artificial intelligence systems are technological representations from information technology and computer science. It will be the Union’s private responsibility to legislate and issue rules on the subject.
Essentially, artificial intelligence works through programs used in computer systems, applications, or even machines to teach the program to perceive, interpret, and interact with the external environment, making predictions, recommendations, classifications, or decisions.

Ten years without Steve Jobs. What does it mean?

October 06, 2021

About a great innovator, a visionary genius, a master storyteller, and a brilliant marketing strategist.
Steve Jobs, Apple’s founder, died on October 5, 2011, and the company is very different today. However, most of his ideas are still alive and kicking in Apple’s DNA.
I remember it like it was yesterday… October 4, 2011, when Apple released the iPhone 4s. There is an empty seat in the first row, reserved for Apple executives, with the “reserved” sign framed several times before, during, and after the presentation, perhaps to leave the hope that Steve Jobs will appear at the last moment.
But he doesn’t show up: he’s dealing with pancreatic cancer complications, or he’s already passed away, and the announcement was delayed so as not to disrupt Tim Cook’s first keynote as CEO.

The Terminator paradox
Amazon
April 30, 2021

Introduction
It was in a Cyber Café in Florence, Italy, when I met Mariana Verzaro for the first time. She had just moved to Italy in search of her Italian Citizenship and was looking to meet new people, make friends, and know more about the Italian culture.
I was working on one of the best cyber cafes in the area. The internet train had a lovely view of Ponte Vecchio, one of the best tourist spots of Florence.
The year was 2005, and we have been great friends since then, constantly changing our crazy experiences with each other.
I live now in Poland, working as an AI Evangelist in a significant company. I have a beautiful family; now, I am entering the windy and tortuous field of writing. All those written articles are transforming themselves into books.
Mariana Verzaro is one of the most significant sources of inspiration in my life. She has a degree in Fashion, a Postgraduate Degree in music therapy, and a master’s degree in Neuroscience. She is the creator of the "mverzaro" channel on YouTube. She talks about "neuroscience for everyone" and owns the company Círculo Produções.
She always had a tremendous entrepreneurial streak. At the age of 5, she set up a mini-movie rental company at home. At the age of 13, she was already planning and organizing events.
At the age of 16, she did an exchange in Brighton, England. At the age of 22, she moved from Sao Paulo to Cuiabá, in Mato Grosso, Brazil, and founded the first electronic music disco in the region. The extinct E-club was a landmark in the local electronic scene.
At the same time, she also set herself up as a fashion entrepreneur, opening the ". DOC." This multi-brand store worked with local brands. She was also a professor of Fashion History, Communication in Fashion and Photography for the fashion course at UNIC (University of Cuiaba).
At the age of 25, she moved to Europe, lived one year in Florence, Italy, and four years in Barcelona, Spain, where she improved her knowledge of the local culture and languages, in addition to gaining experience around events as a D.J., producer and artists management, she also worked with logistics for pilots and flight attendants for one important airline.
In 2009, she returned to Brazil and started to work as an artist manager and event producer with her company "Círculo Produções.".
Since 2012, she has also been dedicating herself to the academic area, conducting a postgraduate degree in music therapy in 2013 and a master’s degree in neuroscience in 2016.
In 2019 she graduated as a yoga teacher. In that period, I have invited her to take part as a speaker at The Artificial Intelligence and Design Thinking Conference in Wroclaw, which I have organized in Wroclaw in Poland.
She is currently a Ph.D. student in Neuroscience at USP’s Psychology Institute. She teaches psychology and works with researching different topics in neuroscience, including hypnoses, telepathy, and telekinesis, spirits, magic, religion, music, arts, fashion, yoga, and meditation. She is a digital influencer for the blog and vlog mverzaro and a respected speaker in neuroscience, technology, spirituality, Fashion, consumption, and an event producer and artist manager with her company "Círculo Produções.".
On my side, I have been exploring the concept of empathy in technology, especially in Cognitive Computing (Working on projects related to teaching humanoid robots to be as more empathetic as possible).
We started to write a series of articles where we shared free ideas and visions about empathy during a series of long virtual conversations (days of texting, endless WhatsApp audio messages, and hundreds of link exchanges) with Mariana be applied to AI in general. This topic has a constantly growing interest in the tech industry and our society during the last years.
Mariana Verzaro is an amazingly creative and qualified woman. As I mentioned, she graciously and competently navigates inside the universe of Neuroscience, Fashion, Music, Spirituality, and Anomalous Psychology.
While completing her doctorate in Neurosciences at the University of Sao Paulo, she has studied empathy applied to several contexts in Brazil.

Preface
Some people are afraid of science. They think it is like a weird, horrific monster, that it is complicated, out of reach, or goes against some principle. However, the reality is that science and logic are in everything.
In the love of a mother for her child, in the petals of a sunflower, in the pyramids of Egypt. Science makes us understand atoms, the universe and makes us see how amazing life is!
How many were not those who fought in search of discovering scientific knowledge! Descartes, Kepler, and many others who, with their conviction and persistence, sought evidence at a time when doing so were at significant risk of death, and many died from it.
The scientific method is to define an experiment so that anyone who tries to carry it out will get the same result. Making it clear here that we are not talking about quantum physics (in quantum physics, everything is possible, really).
There is no denying the importance of science in all aspects of our lives, especially in education, whether in critical thinking or teaching methodologies, and how it all transforms an individual. And when you change the individual, you change everyone.

Introduction to A.I., Robotics, and Coding (for Parents) A guide for Analog Parents with Digital Kids
Amazon
March 26, 2021

Technology is continuously present in every part of our lives and careers. It is increasingly present everywhere; it is even difficult to imagine life today without digital use.
The need for information in our world is constant and unstoppable during the last two decades. It is changing the world, as we know it, even when you are reading this article.
Being a parent in the information age is not just investing in our children’s technological devices and teaching them how to use them. It does not help young people know how to use the digital tool; we need to educate them about using it responsibly, ethically, and safely.
Our duty as parents is to guide the correct use of technology, showing the consequences of improper benefit for the individual and society.
Parents play an essential role in technology awareness but often feel lost amid so many innovations, without knowing the limits to be imposed, or even without actual knowledge of the dangers of uncontrolled exposure of their children.
Many parents are still confused about technology education’s roles, leaving school in charge and even fulfilling their duty.
Technology Education in the private sphere-moral and ethical values, the fair use of technology, and sustainability, for example, should be the responsibility of the family. In contrast, in the public sphere-methods, technology culture, and technical knowledge should be the school’s responsibility.
As parents, we are called upon to play our part as technology educators and not charge the school for the functions that should be ours. It is also important to remember that a happy and healthy childhood experience involves having our children freely express their opinions about any issues that directly affect them.

Purpose of this book
Covering the basics of AI, Robotics, and Coding, this book guide gives parents an up-to-date overview of how these technologies impact their children’s skills development and how they can be prepared for the job market future.
It examines educational, behavioral, and practical aspects of AI, Robotics and Coding, and how children interact with them.
It will also help build parents’ confidence when facing the digital era’s ethical challenges and navigate technological devices' potential pitfalls.

The focus of this book
This book helps explain difficult and potentially unusual concepts such as AI, Machine Learning, robots, automation, programming languages, and others, addressing parents on how to support their kids in their digital journey.

Audience
Written by a father of three young girls with a proven experience and knowledge in technology, innovation, Artificial Intelligence, automation, and Programming Languages, this book is for those parents who want to help their children make the most out of the emerging technologies today and for the future, as a perfect launch platform to discover what the future is reserving to us.

During the workshop, interacting with our trainers, the group had the opportunity to participate actively in intercultural activities, to develop awareness about several topics such as cultural diversity, mutual respect and tolerance.

The workshop was in English and it was a great opportunity for our kids to construct and to express their thoughts and opinions in that language in a high and intensive level of conversation. During the whole workshop and especially during the breaks, there was a lot of interaction with the group, always in English.

The Cross-Cultural Competence workshop was the first of a series of 3 workshops designed to train IBMers’ kids from 13 to 16 years. We will complete the series in September.

How Autonomous Vehicles will redefine the concept of mobility
Thinkers360
October 22, 2020

Autonomous vehicles are characterized by not having to deal with human limitations, such as tiredness and inattention. It is estimated that autonomous cars can create a 7 trillion dollar market. Beauty salons, dinners, and health clinics are services that can be performed inside the vehicles. The global auto industry expects to sell 59.6 million automobiles in 2020, according to Statista. The coronavirus pandemic has hit car sales, which were on track to reach 80 million in 2019. Autonomous vehicles may become a preferred target of virtual attacks, aiming to steal data or compromise systems. Autonomous vehicles have enormous potential to expand access to transportation, goods, and jobs in several cities. Launching a new mobility service with large-scale operations will involve fundamental consumer behavior changes. Transportation companies must manage their autonomous fleets based on intelligent technology and a high utilization rate. Autonomous cars will change the way the automotive industry makes money. The industry will changes a lot in the next 10 or 20 years with autonomous car technology development. Millennials no longer buy cars, especially in big cities, as they don't want to pay to park or deal with other problems. Autonomous vehicles will revolutionize the transportation industry in practically all areas. The number of owners will decrease, especially in large cities, concentrating on fleets. Workshops will change to carry out the maintenance required by new technologies. Service stations will need to adapt to supply electric recharging services. Autonomous vehicles are already a reality at its most basic levels of automation. Some actions are already taken regarding auto repair shops that can facilitate this transition. Some others will take time and depend on how fast the market Continue reading this article on Medium: How Autonomous Vehicles will redefine the concept of mobility
