Between algorithms and affections in the Amazon
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article explores the interplay between relational intelligence and artificial intelligence in higher education, drawing on the supervision of two undergraduate theses completed in 2024 at Amazonas State University. The studies focused on fuzzy optimal control of the pink river dolphin (Inia geoffrensis ) population and numerical modeling of thermal stratification in Lake Tefé – both complex projects rooted in the Amazonian context and requiring advanced mathematical and computational skills. Despite their technical demands, the success of these endeavors hinged on relational practices such as active listening, trust, progressive autonomy, and dialogue. Building on these experiences, the article discusses how artificial and relational intelligence can be integrated to foster innovative, human-centered pedagogy in technical-scientific fields.
