This second edition explores the connection between ethical principles, human rights, and the implementation of technologies based on artificial intelligence systems in Latin America and the Caribbean. Issues such as gender, regionalism, development, and uses in urban contexts highlight the need for delving into the mechanisms to translate ethical principles into practices, policies, and
regulations in accordance with human rights and with a focus on how to create social and economic value in the region.
