On Monday, September 15, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro announced that the country will develop its own artificial intelligence (AI). He added that classes on the subject will be taught in schools this year so that students know what it is and how to use it.

Maduro said: “Venezuela will soon have its own artificial intelligence, sovereign, national, Venezuelan, coordinated by the world, but fueled by us,” during a visit to a school to mark the start of the new 2025-2026 school year.

Although the Venezuelan president did not provide further details about the announcement or specify a date for when Venezuela will have its AI, he referred to it as a positive step forward for the nation.

In November 2024, the president urged action in education so that the country knows how to “manage AI at the highest level, through alliances with strategic allies such as Russia and China.”

According to Maduro, AI and new technologies should be studied in all university programs, “and he highlighted their application in fields such as medicine, engineering, design, and political science,” among others.

An important piece of information related to this announcement is the signing of a memorandum of understanding last July with the Chinese company iFlytek for the joint development of AI technologies.

On Wednesday, August 6, a meeting will be held between the Central Bank of Brazil, Anbima, B3, Banco Central, CVM, Febraban, FGC, and Sebrae to discuss topics related to financial education, its dissemination in public schools, and the recognition of teachers in this sector.

The meeting will be held at Casa Portugal, from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., with participation restricted to those invited and the media, who must register by sending a request to imprensa@anbima.com.br.

The objective of this second meeting “is to promote joint initiatives, expand access to the topic, and integrate different areas of action.” During the event, the new partnership between Anbima, the Central Bank, CVM, and Sebrae will be announced. The goal is to “expand the Learning Value program, created by the Central Bank, which brings financial education to public schools. The intention is to broaden the project’s reach and strengthen its presence in the school curriculum.”

The presentation of the “Learning Value Award” is scheduled, which seeks to “recognize the efforts of teachers, schools, and educational networks that promote innovative practices in financial education.”

The agenda includes topics such as inclusion and financial health, teaching in schools and universities, and topics related to behavioral economics, with the aim of “stimulating new approaches and promoting connections between different sectors,” which will have a positive impact on promoting individual autonomy and the country’s economic stability.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro emphasized this Monday, July 14, the importance of developing a homegrown, sovereign AI, articulated with the Global South.

The president insisted on the creation of a homegrown AI while criticizing those developed so far, which he considers biased.

Maduro said on his television program Con Maduro+ (With Maduro+), which airs every Monday, that it is necessary to avoid dependence on this colonialist AI in order to achieve balance.

According to the Venezuelan president, the South American nation has received technological support from China for the development of its own AI. He also referred to the signing of an agreement on AI development with the government of President Xi Jinping, a signatory of intent to transform the Asian country into a political system.
