IA, pregiudizi, approccio umano-centrico, alfabetizzazione digitale, inclusione socialeAbstract
Il saggio, partendo da un’analisi sociologica sul ruolo dell’intel- ligenza artificiale nella società contemporanea, focalizza la propria attenzione sull’alfabetizzazione digitale e sulla funzione della digital literacy quale capacità di utilizzare le tecnologie digitali in modo efficace e critico, in un’attenzione che promuova un uso consapevole delle tecnologie e che rimetta al centro l’uomo come agente dotato di coscienza, valutazione e interpretazione.
