Mexico drafts artificial intelligence law to boost tech development

Mexico is poised to develop a comprehensive artificial intelligence law, spearheaded by Congressman Eruviel Ávila Villegas, who chairs the Chamber of Deputies' Science, Technology, and Innovation Commission. Ávila emphasized the importance of this legislation to match the country's growing scientific and technological ambitions.

"Mexico is experiencing a great moment in scientific and technological development, with the impetus of scientific president Claudia Sheinbaum and the commitment of Secretary Rosaura Ruiz," Ávila stated, recognizing Ruiz's role. He underscored that the new AI law will support and elevate these national projects.

Ávila pointed to several key advancements, including the Olinia electric car, the Kutsari semiconductor project, the Coatlicue supercomputer, and the Misión Ixtlán satellite initiative. These projects, he noted, demonstrate a long-term vision to establish Mexico as a leader in innovation, science, and technology. He also confirmed that the Congress of the Union will provide full support to these areas, with a bicameral meeting planned soon.

Senator Susana Harp, who leads the Senate's Science Commission, was present at the announcement, signaling a unified legislative approach to advancing Mexico's technological frontier.
