Miguel de Castro Neto, director of NOVA IMS, warned about the need to implement more safeguards in the development of Artificial Intelligence. According to him, it is not possible to run the risk of having AI models that could put critical services and infrastructure at risk.

The official analyzed the warnings that have been made about the accelerated development of Artificial Intelligence models, highlighting that this is a growing concern globally.

De Castro Neto stated that any Artificial Intelligence model always incorporates a set of limits, rules, and mechanisms for controlling its operation, although the risks associated with the technology continue to deserve special attention.
