ETHICS FOR THE USE OF AI IN HIGHER EDUCATION IN BRAZIL
Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education; Institutional Policies; Ethics
Artificial intelligence is a technological innovation from the Global North with the potential to challenge the way we live, produce, and disseminate knowledge in the Global South. Studies describe technologies and technological trends based on artificial intelligence that are being incorporated into higher education in Brazil, with the power to determine access to rights and opportunities, thus the fate of people and society. The development of science and technology are at the center of the causes of paradigmatic transformations in history, however, in the current scenario remains the paradox between remarkable advances and the intensification of inequalities, arising in large part from geopolitical struggles for power and markets. The UN 2030 Agenda draws attention to the urgence to prioritize sustainable development and sets specific targets for quality education. Since the use of artificial intelligence has a significant influence on the future of higher education, and considering that higher education is a fundamental right and a strategic sector for the economic and social development of the country (BRASIL, 2014), as well as that there is no regulatory framework for artificial intelligence, especially in education, in Brazil, the purpose of the proposed research is to point out guidelines for the ethical use of technologies based on artificial intelligence in Brazilian higher education, based on a narrative review and content analysis of selected documents.
