AI Adoption Surges as Employers, Courts and Cities Confront Risks and Skills Gaps

New surveys and a court annulment signal rapid adoption with mounting demands for oversight and training.

Overview

  • Business use is now mainstream in HR, with a Computrabajo study reporting that 80% of Mexican companies apply AI in recruitment and four in ten firms use it across processes, while 70% of non-users plan near‑term adoption.
  • A MicrosoftCornell analysis of 200,000 Copilot interactions finds generative systems can already perform most tasks in some language‑heavy roles, reaching up to 98% for translators and high exposure for writers, editors and programmers.
  • A criminal ruling in Esquel, Argentina, was annulled after the appeals chamber detected generative‑AI text embedded in the decision, raising confidentiality and integrity concerns for judicial drafting.
  • Online content is increasingly machine‑written, with Graphite estimating that 52% of newly published articles in May 2025 were AI‑generated, as the reliability of detection tools remains contested.
  • Experts at regional forums urge continuous upskilling and governance, citing BAIC data that 57% of Basque organizations have trained staff yet face a 1,144‑person talent gap, alongside warnings about surveillance risks and the limits of deepfake forensics.
