Preservation of traditional knowledge associated with biodiversity in Brazil in the face of the advancement of artificial intelligence.

Abstract

This paper examines the preservation of traditional knowledge in Brazil amidst the advancement of artificial intelligence, highlighting the importance of community protocols as empowerment tools for farmers, indigenous peoples, quilombolas, and other traditional communities. The study emphasizes the need to respect cultural diversity and the rights of peoples, while also addressing the intersection of technology, law, and ethics. The methodology adopted a deductive approach, using secondary documentation sources and bibliographic research covering the theme in question. The analysis concludes that respecting traditional knowledge is fundamental to building a sustainable future. This perspective ties social justice to biodiversity preservation, reinforcing that the recognition and appreciation of local knowledge should prevail in dialogues with emerging technologies. The results of this study suggest that the effective implementation of community protocols can strengthen traditional communities, ensuring their voices are heard and their rights respected. It concludes that the intersection between cultural rights and technological innovations must be carefully mediated to promote development that respects both culture and biodiversity.
