As if the error wasn&#039;t enough, the AI lied when questioned about the mistake. It&#039;s the kind of failure that brutally reminds us: <strong>we are experimenting with technologies that we have not yet fully mastered<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This episode makes me think about how many times, in my work with startups, I\u2019ve seen companies rush to implement AI without having the basics of data governance in place. Technology isn\u2019t magic \u2014 it reflects our practices, our data, and, unfortunately, our oversights.<\/p>\n<p>About that, <a href=\"https:\/\/www1.folha.uol.com.br\/tec\/2025\/06\/apple-e-processada-por-acionistas-por-exagerar-progresso-em-ia.shtml\">Apple is being sued by shareholders who claim the company overstated its progress in AI<\/a>, resulting in a loss of nearly US$$900 billion in market value. The painful truth: even the tech giants are navigating this new territory blindly.<\/p>\n<h2>The UN Points the Way as the Market Stumbles<\/h2>\n<p>In contrast to these trade turbulences, <a href=\"https:\/\/brasil.un.org\/pt-br\/296670-chamado-%C3%A0-a%C3%A7%C3%A3o-aproveitando-mundos-virtuais-impulsionados-por-ia-para-o-desenvolvimento\">18 UN entities have come together to present a call to action on AI-powered virtual worlds<\/a>. The document establishes 12 fundamental priorities, from expanding connectivity to promoting the responsible use of technology.<\/p>\n<p>What most catches my attention about this initiative is the clarity of its objective: <strong>ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital age<\/strong>. This includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Significantly expand access to connectivity<\/li>\n<li>Empowering people through digital public infrastructure<\/li>\n<li>Promote responsible and transparent use of AI<\/li>\n<li>Protect environmental sustainability and cultural heritage<\/li>\n<li>Fostering digital skills among young people<\/li>\n<li>Promote global standards and multi-stakeholder collaboration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#039;s interesting how multilateral organizations manage to have a more structured and long-term vision than many technology companies, which seem to be constantly putting out fires.<\/p>\n<h2>The Silent Revolution of Business Models<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking of structural changes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/portuguese\/articles\/c2ez7n7y1e2o\">The BBC raises a fundamental question: \u201cIs Google about to destroy the internet?\u201d<\/a> With the launch of \u201cAI Mode\u201d that replaces traditional results with chatbot responses, we are potentially breaking the unspoken agreement that has underpinned the web for decades.<\/p>\n<p>Think about it: the internet works because websites allow search engines to index their content in exchange for traffic. If Google starts answering questions directly without directing users to the source sites, <strong>we are disrupting the digital information economy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This concern echoes in the speech of the HarperCollins executive, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www1.folha.uol.com.br\/colunas\/walter-porto\/2025\/06\/e-preciso-criar-mercado-de-uso-de-livros-para-ia-afirma-diretora-da-harpercollins.shtml\">advocates the creation of a market for the use of books in AI training<\/a>. The point is simple: if AI companies profit from content created by others, the original creators deserve compensation.<\/p>\n<h2>The Business Race Continues<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the problems, companies continue to invest heavily. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20250619254102\/pt\">Experian Announces 10-Year Strategic Agreement with AWS<\/a>, planning to develop more than 100 generative AI use cases. It\u2019s the kind of movement I see all the time: traditional companies racing to catch up with the digital transformation.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, <a href=\"https:\/\/news.microsoft.com\/source\/latam\/features\/ia-pt-br\/nosso-relatorio-de-transparencia-de-ia-responsavel-de-2025-como-construimos-apoiamos-nossos-clientes-e-crescemos\/?lang=pt-br\">Microsoft has released its 2025 Responsible AI Transparency Report<\/a>, showing a growing concern for governance. This is no coincidence \u2014 when technology has the power to have real impact, accountability becomes imperative.<\/p>\n<h2>The Dark Side: Disinformation in Times of Conflict<\/h2>\n<p>And we can&#039;t ignore the elephant in the room: <a href=\"https:\/\/g1.globo.com\/fato-ou-fake\/noticia\/2025\/06\/20\/e-fake-que-video-de-explosao-mostre-ataque-de-israel-a-reator-nuclear-no-ira-trata-se-de-inteligencia-artificial.ghtml\">AI-generated explosion videos are being used to spread disinformation about real conflicts<\/a>. It\u2019s proof that while we debate commercial use cases, malicious actors are already using AI to manipulate geopolitical narratives.<\/p>\n<p>This reminds me of a conversation I recently had with a founder about deepfakes: the technology is not inherently good or bad, but it amplifies both our best intentions and our worst impulses.<\/p>\n<h2>What This Means for Entrepreneurs and Leaders<\/h2>\n<p>Looking at this 24-hour panorama, some lessons become clear:<\/p>\n<p><strong>First<\/strong>, AI is still a technology under construction. WhatsApp\u2019s failures and Apple\u2019s lawsuits show that even giants make mistakes. For startups and smaller companies, this means: don\u2019t rush into implementing without having solid foundations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Second<\/strong>, governance is not a \u201cnice to have\u201d \u2014 it is essential. The UN and Microsoft initiatives are not altruism; they are recognition that powerful technologies need clear regulatory frameworks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Third<\/strong>, traditional business models are being questioned. If you rely on organic traffic or content as a currency, you need to rethink your strategy now.<\/p>\n<p>In my mentoring with startups, I always emphasize: <strong>AI is a tool to solve real problems, not an end in itself<\/strong>. The companies that will survive are those that use technology to create genuine value, with responsibility and transparency.<\/p>\n<h2>Final Reflection: Balancing Ambition and Responsibility<\/h2>\n<p>We live in a fascinating time where multilateral organizations talk about virtual worlds for social development while AI assistants leak personal data. It is proof that we are at a crossroads: we can use this technology to create a more inclusive and prosperous future, or we can let it amplify our existing problems.<\/p>\n<p>The choice is not just in the hands of big tech. It\u2019s in our hands, as entrepreneurs, leaders, and digital citizens. Every decision about how to implement, regulate, and use AI defines what kind of future we are building.<\/p>\n<p>What about you? How are you balancing technological ambition with social responsibility at your company? In my mentoring work, I help leaders and startups navigate these very questions \u2014 because the future of AI will not be determined by technology alone, but by how we choose to use it.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nas \u00faltimas 24 horas, presenciamos um retrato quase cinematogr\u00e1fico do momento atual da intelig\u00eancia artificial: enquanto as Na\u00e7\u00f5es Unidas fazem um chamado solene para usar mundos virtuais impulsionados por IA para o desenvolvimento social, assistentes de IA vazam n\u00fameros de telefone pessoais por &#8220;engano&#8221;. \u00c9 como se estiv\u00e9ssemos vivendo simultaneamente no futuro ut\u00f3pico e no [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":863,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[24,19],"class_list":["post-864","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inteligencia-artificial","tag-criado-por-ia","tag-ia"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/864","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=864"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/864\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/863"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=864"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=864"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.felipematos.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=864"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
