Latin America in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Toward a Policy and Cooperation Agenda

Author: Rafael Gustavo Miranda Delgado

Abstract

As a general-purpose technology, AI affects all dimensions of social dynamics, and it is spreading rapidly around the world. However, the pace of AI development varies globally, and its potential and risks are distributed differently within contemporary global governance. This threatens to deepen historical inequalities and exclude much of humanity from its benefits. Latin America, for its part, is a region lagging behind in AI development and facing pressing needs, such as improving state capacities. Thus, this research aims to analyze how Latin America can leverage AI to promote greater social well-being. This research falls within the field of Global Studies and adopts an analytical approach to multilevel issue – oriented.
