The G7 is thus forced to consider the great general problems of humanity and not only the particular interests of its countries,” said the PRO deputy. Fernando Iglesiaswho is part of the delegation that accompanies him.
The Government seeks that in the short time Argentina becomes a hub for the development of artificial intelligencewhich is why this issue occupied a good part of the international agenda of the libertarian, who has been meeting with businessmen from important companies in this sector.
