The Secretary of Innovation, Science and Technology of the Nation, Darío Genua, strongly criticized the bill on artificial intelligence presented by Kirchnerist deputy Daniel Gollán. According to his explanation, the initiative will be addressed in the Science and Technology Committee of the Chamber of Deputies in record time and reflects a "complete lack of knowledge" of the subject.
For Genua, legislating on a complex area without technical foundations is repeating the mistakes that led the country to backwardness. He recalled that if, in the 1990s, the arrival of the Internet had been blocked out of fear, today Argentina would be isolated from one of the tools that transformed daily life and the economy.

Risk of copying failed regulatory models
The official also warned about the danger of importing regulatory frameworks from other countries that have already proven to be unsuccessful. In particular, he pointed to the case of the European Union, where the initial regulatory rigidity stifled innovation,discouraged investment, and delayed the adoption of AI. Currently, Brussels is forced to relax those regulations in order not to fall behind.
In contrast, Argentina has a dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem and strategic sectors with great potential, such as agribusiness, energy, health, and the knowledge economy. For Genua, the priority must be to support those actors instead of imposing obstacles that only generate bureaucracy and discourage local talent.

The future at stake
The warning from the Secretary of Innovation is directed against what he defined as a "guaranteed setback" if improvised regulations are approved. Genua insisted that the debate on artificial intelligence can't be left in the hands of serial regulators who legislate on subjects they do not understand. According to his view, the country's challenge is to pave the way for technological development and not repeat formulas that have already failed abroad.
