Mexico artificial intelligence integration initiatives

Overview

Mexican legislators and government agencies are pursuing the integration of artificial intelligence to drive economic and digital development. Initially, legislative proposals focused on creating “smart destinations” within the tourism sector. These proposals emphasized using innovation and data to better understand visitors and facilitate investment while ensuring technology does not displace cultural identity or human labor.

Following these discussions, the government expanded its technological focus toward human capital. The Public Center for Artificial Intelligence Training launched a second generation of its program, enrolling 23,000 young people in intensive training covering AI, cybersecurity, and data analysis. This initiative, supported by multiple secretariats, aims to democratize access to technological knowledge with a goal of issuing 25,000 AI certifications by the end of 2026.
