Argentina

No comprehensive lawApproach: No AI law; an AI framework bill won a 2025 committee report but no floor vote

Argentina has no AI law. In November 2025 the Chamber of Deputies' science and technology committee issued a majority report on an AI framework bill, which has not reached a floor vote, and congressional hearings on issues such as electoral manipulation and data privacy have built momentum. Public-sector AI guidance exists, and the data protection regime, which is undergoing modernization efforts, binds AI systems processing personal data.

Key points

  • No formal AI law; hearings have raised electoral manipulation and privacy concerns.
  • Public administration AI recommendations (2023) and a June 2026 AI controls guide steer state use.
  • The data protection law applies to AI systems handling personal data.
  • In November 2025 the Chamber of Deputies' science and technology committee issued a majority report on an AI framework bill promoted by its chair, Daniel Gollán; it has not reached a floor vote.
