An avalanche of news about Artificial Intelligence has taken over Brazilian news in the last 24 hours. As someone who closely follows technological developments and actively participates in discussions about innovation in the country, I could not help but share an analysis of the main events and their implications for our ecosystem.

Let's start with the most pressing issue: the regulation of AI in Brazil. The Senate is making a new attempt to vote on the bill that regulates the use of artificial intelligence in the country. As reported by Poder360, the vote is expected to take place even without full consensus.

From my experience leading Dínamo and actively participating in the construction of the Legal Framework for Startups, I know that finding the balance between regulation and innovation is a fundamental challenge. We need clear rules that protect society without stifling innovation.

Practical cases show the potential of AI

While we discuss regulation, the market continues to innovate. An interesting example comes from the corporate catering sector, where companies are using AI to optimize everything from menu planning to accident prevention, with impressive results: a 10% reduction in accidents and a return on investment in less than a year.

The energy debate

A fundamental aspect that emerges from these discussions is the energy issue. Apple's Lisa Jackson highlighted during her visit to Brazil the importance of clean energy for the development of AI. This makes me reflect on a unique competitive advantage of Brazil: our predominantly renewable energy matrix.

Market trends

In the business area, a Recent study shows that Marketing and Sales lead the adoption of Generative AI. As a startup mentor, I’ve seen more and more entrepreneurs exploring these tools to gain efficiency and scale.

Creative innovations

It's interesting to see how traditional companies are reinventing themselves. Ypê, for example, is using TikTok's AI to give cleaning tips, showing that technology can be applied in creative ways even in more traditional sectors.

What can we expect?

In my view, we are living in a transformative moment. AI regulation in Brazil, if well executed, can create an environment conducive to responsible innovation. Our advantage in clean energy can position us as a global hub for AI development.

To take advantage of this moment, we need to:

• Investing in technological education (something I have defended and practiced at Inteli)
• Building bridges between startups and large companies
• Fostering the ethical and responsible use of AI
• Taking advantage of our clean energy matrix as a competitive advantage

This is a time for cautious optimism. We have all the ingredients to be protagonists in this technological revolution, but we need to act intelligently and responsibly.
