Artificial Intelligence - Argentina
Argentina has no comprehensive or sectoral AI law in force; its national-level approach is built on voluntary guidelines, ethical recommendations and a national strategy, with binding effects only through pre-existing data-protection law (Law 25.326). Key instruments are Disposición 2/2023's 'Recommendations for Trustworthy AI' for the public sector and the AAIP's 2023 transparency program and responsible-use guide. Multiple framework bills were introduced in Congress in 2025-2026 but none has been enacted.
As of 2026 Argentina has not enacted a comprehensive or sectoral AI statute; regulation relies on soft-law guidance and the existing personal-data regime. Several framework bills (e.g., proposals by Sen. Doñate and Dep. Giuliano) are under debate in Congress but unapproved.
Disposición 2/2023 of the Subsecretaría de Tecnologías de la Información (Jefatura de Gabinete), published in the Boletín Oficial on 1 June 2023, approved 'Recomendaciones para una Inteligencia Artificial Fiable' — ethical principles (transparency/explainability, security, equity/non-discrimination, privacy, human oversight, accountability) applied across the AI lifecycle for public-sector projects. These are guidance, not enforceable mandates.
AAIP Resolution 161/2023 (Boletín Oficial, 4 Sept 2023) created the 'Programa de Transparencia y Protección de Datos Personales en el uso de la Inteligencia Artificial', tasking the authority with analysis, capacity-building and transparency criteria for AI in public and private sectors.
The AAIP published a 'Guía para entidades públicas y privadas en materia de uso responsable de la Inteligencia Artificial', offering recommendations on transparency and data protection for AI deployments. The guide is advisory and complements Law 25.326 on personal data.
The 2019 Plan Nacional de Inteligencia Artificial sets non-binding strategic axes (talent, data, infrastructure, R&D, public-sector adoption, ethics/regulation) to promote AI development and anticipate risks to rights and privacy.
The Province of Buenos Aires adopted Resolution 9/2025 (Subsecretaría de Gobierno Digital), described as the first mandatory framework regulating development, implementation and use of AI systems within that province's public administration — illustrating that binding rules so far appear only at the subnational level.
