Inside Global Tech – The article outlines the new Artificial Intelligence Law passed by Mexico’s Congress in March 2025, positioning Mexico as the first Latin American country to establish a comprehensive AI regulatory framework. The law introduces requirements for transparency, data governance, and bias prevention.

AI systems must undergo risk-based classification, and developers are required to implement human oversight and documentation processes. Public sector applications of AI face stricter rules, including accountability for decisions affecting rights or access to services.

The law also creates an AI oversight body tasked with enforcement, compliance monitoring, and public education. Legal scholars say the law reflects international best practices, inspired by the EU AI Act and OECD guidelines, but with localized considerations for Mexico’s social context.
