Artificial intelligence debates span Spain, UK and Uruguay

Juan Ramón Rallo, a Spanish commentator, released a video analysing artificial intelligence, describing its core methods such as machine learning and deep learning, and highlighting applications from virtual assistants to autonomous vehicles. He also warned of potential job losses, privacy risks and the need for ethical regulation.

In the United Kingdom, educators argue that AI should not replace teachers but can free time for better instruction. Tools that generate activities, adapt texts and provide feedback are presented as ways to personalise English language teaching and reduce teachers' workload, while emphasizing that human judgment remains essential.

Uruguay’s Chamber of Representatives convened a multipartite session titled “Technology interrogates democracy,” where politicians, academics and religious leaders discussed the ethical and social challenges of AI. Referencing the papal encyclical *Magnífica Humanitas*, speakers warned that large tech firms could dictate access and visibility, urging stronger state oversight and digital literacy education.
