Fool US: Generative Magic on TV
I was invited twice to present generative magic on TV. I was the first and only Brazilian magician so far.
Both performances and their methods do not require any human intervention due to the role computer generation takes.

Generative Magic
Generative magic is the application of generative concepts to magic performances and effects. My first attempt to formalize it was to use constraint programming to remove the English bias in magical effects. It was accepted at Constraint Programming 2021 - a mathematical conference on constraint programming - as “Generating magical performances with constraint programming”.
And I already have other manuscripts and books on the way.

GUIPT-3
GUIPT-3 jokes with GPT-3. GUI stands for Guilherme. While GPT-3 might be the most advanced NLP AI out there, it is completely unable to achieve what GUIPT-3 does. By feeding GUIPT-3 with a few phrases about a person, it finds out exactly who it is talking to. This magical performance is based on a simple trick I learned in Basic in 1989.
