In this episode, we talk about the opinion piece, written by teacher António Caselas for the school newspaper "O Catarino". 
He critiques the emphasis on the perception of public insecurity to the detriment of domestic violence against women in Portugal. 
Teacher Caselas argues that while a phantom-like and exaggerated violence is being discussed, the real and recurring violence against women is ignored or downplayed, despite its severity and lethal consequences.

The opinion article written by teacher António Caselas - AE de Santa Catarina, Oeiras, Portugal - discusses the possibility of artificial intelligence dominating the world, using the movie "Ex Machina" and a real-life example as illustrations.

The author argues that this capacity for independent decision-making, combined with the computational superiority of AI, poses a significant risk to human civilization. 

The main concern is the automation of AI and its potential ability to use manipulation to achieve its goals. 

The article concludes with a call to take the dire consequences of this technological development seriously.
