The advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, propelled by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), heralds a paradigm shift in productivity, product diversity, and consumer choice and demand. Recognising the transformative potential of AI, the Open Data Institute (ODI), in partnership with the British Embassy in Mexico, has conducted an assessment of data-centric AI governance approaches in the UK and Mexico with a view to identifying opportunities for cooperation.
Our recommendations are intended to accelerate cooperation between the two countries, build on areas of consensus from the initial engagement with Mexico’s regulatory community, government representatives and civil society, and leverage existing areas of trade where there are already well-established flows of data which could support AI innovation and data-centric AI governance controls.
Further engagement with the Mexico AI governance community will be critical to iterate and develop these recommendations into a logical implementation approach, and to drive engagement and support from policymakers.
