| description | ABSTRACT The process of exploring other countries in distant continents began in the colonial era, and imperialism still persists today in different forms. The development of technology related to artificial intelligence also undergoes these impacts, where there is a colonial form of selecting bodies and minds that needs to change. The objective of this work is to remove the blindfold on an ultra-normalized process of super-exploitation of labor in artificial intelligence in Brazil by U.S. companies, creating a more sought-after profile, to embark on a process of decolonizing AI. |
