Argentina Plans New Rules for AI-Run Companies

Argentina’s president, Javier Milei, said he wants the country to become a global center for AI companies. He argues that government rules are one of the biggest barriers to AI, so Argentina should limit intervention as much as possible. Last week, his government sent a new bill to Congress. The bill would create a legal framework for AI and could open the door to a new type of company run by AI systems or robots. In this model, human shareholders may not even be required. The idea has also raised a serious question: if an AI system makes an illegal decision or a financial mistake, who is responsible? Milei says he wants to attract technology companies by offering a very attractive legal and economic environment.
