The president of the Community of Madrid has closed the Global Technological Forum of the AEC in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, where she called for a regulation that encourages the use of technology for human purposes.
The president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, closed this Friday the Global Technological Forum of the Spanish Association of Consulting Companies (AEC), held in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, with a request for 'tailored' regulation for the use of technology, as reported by aquienlasierra.es. The leader defended that this regulation should serve as an incentive and always maintain a 'human purpose': to be at the 'service of life and freedom'.
In her speech, Ayuso highlighted artificial intelligence, quantum computing, cybersecurity, and digital training as the pillars upon which the regional government builds its technological policy. 'We have a region that is prepared for this new era, open to the world, more international than ever,' she stated.
'Technology must serve to build a better, freer world,' the president emphasised, adding that it must be done 'in balance because anything that is not done in balance does not work.'
The regional government is working on a Regional Strategic Plan for Artificial Intelligence that will set the roadmap for incorporating this technology into public services with criteria of utility, security, and responsibility. In parallel, the Digital Administration and Artificial Intelligence Law is progressing through parliamentary procedures and, when it comes into effect, will allow for a more modern, accessible, and efficient administration, with guarantees of transparency, oversight, and protection for the people of Madrid.
The Community of Madrid is also preparing the Digital Twin of the region, a virtual replica that will serve to plan infrastructures and new public services, anticipate needs, and simulate scenarios. Additionally, it is participating in the deployment of secure quantum communication infrastructures for the European project EuroQCI and will host Spain's first quantum computer, which will operate from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM).
