Episode 8: What Role Can LATAM Take in Coalition-based AI Governance?
Theme:
Latin America can play an active role in AI governance. It has regional institutions, shared legal traditions, and a history of multilateral cooperation that few regions can match. But can it turn that foundation into coordinated action?
Coalition-based governance may offer a practical path forward. LATAM countries could align on common standards, share regulatory capacity, and negotiate as a bloc. The tools exist. Regional ties are deepening.
Speakers
- Dr. Julia Pomares, Regional Director, Global Initiative for Digital Empowerment, LATAM Chapter, Argentina
- Antonia Moreno, Head of Public Advocacy, National Center for Artificial Intelligence, Chile
- Dr. Alejandro Pisanty, Professor of State Physics, UNAM, México
