Abstract

This essay aims to analyze the regulation of artificial intelligence use in public administration in Mexico. The methodology consisted of a theoretical-interpretive reflection based on a review of various documentary sources, highlighting both academic articles published on the topic and advances in national and international legislation. The technique is structured using analytical matrices, from which
it is concluded that the use of artificial intelligence in public administration raises questions and challenges regarding who should be held responsible for potential harm caused by an automated system. It also questions whether human oversight becomes essential to prevent the excessive delegation of public functions to algorithms that lack awareness and accountability.
