Technological Innovation in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: A Contrast between French Dynamism and Colombian Potential

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the global landscape, impacting diverse socioeconomic areas. This study comparatively analyzes technological innovation in AI in France and Colombia, two countries with contrasting contexts and trajectories. France, with a strong tradition in research and development, has prioritized investment in infrastructure, the training of specialized talent and the development of ambitious public policies. In contrast, Colombia, an emerging economy, focuses on the application of AI to boost competitiveness in strategic sectors. The analysis examines the strategies, policies and initiatives of each country, seeking to identify key factors for the development and successful adoption of AI in different socioeconomic contexts.
