Colombia is currently unable to develop its own artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and is therefore reliant on foreign systems. However, experts warn against fully delegating national security to these external algorithms. The article, published by La Silla Vacía, stresses the urgent need for Colombia to establish robust governance mechanisms. These mechanisms should include thorough supervision and independent auditing of any AI systems adopted. Without proper oversight, Colombia risks compromising its sovereignty and security. Developing these controls is vital as the country integrates AI into critical areas, despite lacking indigenous AI development capabilities. Prioritizing governance now will safeguard against potential vulnerabilities associated with reliance on foreign technology.
