This presentation examines how AI is reshaping management in Latin America amid major gaps in connectivity, investment, governance, and workforce protection. Managers must act as contextual translators, work-system designers, and accountable decision makers rather than delegating responsibility to algorithms or vendors. Through examples from healthcare and public transportation, the speaker shows why human oversight, transparency, contestability, training, and ethical judgment are essential. The presentation concludes that managers need sufficient AI literacy to question systems, recognize what data omit, and know when to adopt, redesign, or reject an AI-supported decision.
