Organic Intelligence: Critical Thinking in the Age of Algorithms
May 8, 2026
Roundtable Discussion
Basic Education
In this lecture, Pedro Cortella explores two central themes of our time: the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and the urgency of critical thinking as a decision-making skill. In an increasingly complex, dynamic, and algorithm-driven world, Cortella challenges the audience to understand the dialogue between artificial intelligence and multiple intelligences as an educational, ethical, and strategic challenge. Education is no longer merely the transmission of content; it now functions as a space for developing judgment, contextual understanding, and intelligent decision-making. Drawing on philosophy, communication, and futurism, the lecture offers conceptual tools for distinguishing information from noise and efficiency from automation, repositioning the human role in a landscape where choices are increasingly machine-assisted.
