Mexico City Lawmaker Says Up to 45% of Draft Development Plan Was Written by AI

She plans to formally seek answers from the plan’s authors during the public consultation period.

Overview

  • Olivia Garza, who leads the City Congress development planning commission, said AI-detection platforms flagged 30% to 45% of the PGD draft as non-human text.
  • She said she will ask the responsible agencies to explain the methodology, sources, and reasons for heavy automation in preparing the document.
  • Garza said her team used Sidekicker, JustDone, and Ask‑GPT to analyze the text, and Excélsior reported its own Sidekicker check indicated a 76% AI-generated signal.
  • The PGD is designed to guide Mexico City’s development for the next 20 years and remains under public consultation at PILARES.
  • Officials previously characterized the circulating document as an early draft rather than a final plan, and no official response to the AI findings was included in the coverage.
