What does the Latin American state decide with? The 2025 scoreboard
Key takeaways
- Four capacities, six countries, zero complete rows: the bar remains unmet across the region.
- 2025 is the year of AI policies; 2026 will say whether they were policies or documents.
- The dismantling of Mexico's CONEVAL confirms the structural risk: measurement moved to the statistics institute and performance evaluation to the ministry that executes the spending.
- Trust is the only capacity without a dedicated policy in any scoreboard country.
- Immediate window: from August, the European obligations on general-purpose models make generative vendors' documentation contractually demandable.
Four capacities — evidence, data, responsible AI, trust — applied to six countries. No country consolidates more than one. The region bought decision speed without repairing the transmission.
