Abstract

This study critically analyzes Chile’s National Artificial Intelligence Policy, identifying institutional and structural barriers that could limit its effective implementation. Through a qualitative analysis of the official document and its comparison with international regulatory frameworks, the challenges related to enabling factors, development and adoption, and ethical-legal aspects are examined through a qualitative analysis of the official document and its comparison with international regulatory frameworks. The results reveal significant limitations in infrastructure, human talent, regulation, and inter-institutional coordination. It is concluded that, despite its ambitious goals, the policy lacks concrete mechanisms to overcome institutional inertia and address socioeconomic impacts, which could compromise its effectiveness in positioning Chile as a regional leader in AI.
