Abstract
In recent years, governments have changed the way they solve public problems by implementing new technologies, systems, and digital platforms. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have been popularized, disrupting societies and organizations. Thus, national governments have started to implement AI, something that has been reflected in several strategies, projects, and public policies. The main purpose of this research is to compare the AI public policies of two countries, Spain and México, from the theoretical perspective of comparative public policy. This research seeks to understand the relevance of government public policies, strategies, and government actions in the field of AI from the theoretical perspective of comparative public policy, as well as to highlight the elements and characteristics that make up the AI public policies for these countries. The results show that both countries share a political‐social intention in the establishment of public policies and the development of AI. However, while Spain has consolidated projects and institutions that throwing public policy results, Mexico has not been able to consolidate public policies and institutions that take up the issue as a priority. 摘要近年来,各国政府通过实施新技术、系统和数字平台,改变了解决公共问题的方式。人工智能(AI)应用的普及,正在颠覆社会和组织。因此,各国政府纷纷开始实施人工智能,这已体现在多项战略、项目和公共政策中。本研究的主要目的是从比较公共政策的理论视角,比较西班牙和墨西哥两国的人工智能公共政策。本研究旨在理解政府在人工智能领域的公共政策、战略和行动的相关性,并揭示构成两国人工智能公共政策的要素和特征。研究结果表明,两国在公共政策制定和人工智能发展方面均具有共同的政治社会意图。然而,西班牙已整合了能够产生公共政策成果的项目和制度,而墨西哥则未能整合将人工智能作为优先事项的公共政策和制度。 En los últimos años, los gobiernos han transformado su forma de resolver problemas públicos mediante la implementación de nuevas tecnologías, sistemas y plataformas digitales. Recientemente, las aplicaciones de la Inteligencia Artificial (IA) se han popularizado, transformando sociedades y organizaciones. Por ello, los gobiernos nacionales han comenzado a implementar la IA, lo que se ha reflejado en diversas estrategias, proyectos y políticas públicas. El objetivo principal de esta investigación es comparar las políticas públicas de IA de dos países, España y México, desde la perspectiva teórica de la política pública comparada. Esta investigación busca comprender la relevancia de las políticas, estrategias y acciones gubernamentales en el ámbito de la IA desde la perspectiva teórica de la política pública comparada, así como destacar los elementos y características que conforman las políticas públicas de IA en estos países. Los resultados muestran que ambos países comparten una intención político‐social en el establecimiento de políticas públicas y el desarrollo de la IA. Sin embargo, mientras que España ha consolidado proyectos e instituciones que generan resultados en materia de políticas públicas, México no ha logrado consolidar políticas e instituciones que prioricen el tema.
