Technology and AI impact education and labor markets

Discussions regarding the role of technology in education and the implications of artificial intelligence were central themes at recent forums. Experts emphasize that true innovation in education stems from pedagogical shifts rather than the mere adoption of digital tools. Moving the student to the center of learning through methodologies like educational robotics allows for the practical application of logic, math, and science, fostering autonomy and critical thinking.

Regarding artificial intelligence, specialists at the RNP Forum 2026 highlighted that AI functions primarily as algorithmic imitation of human cognitive and repetitive capacities rather than true thought. This technology is already reshaping the labor market, particularly in coding and cognitive tasks. Additionally, panels addressed the necessity of establishing regulatory frameworks in Brazil to manage the social and professional reorganization caused by AI.
