Argentina bets on minimal rules and mega-projects — none has broken ground yet

The government is offering 'the most attractive legal and fiscal framework in the world' for AI, using the RIGI large-investment regime. Its flagship, Stargate Argentina (OpenAI and Sur Energy, up to $25B and 500 MW announced in October 2025), has not started construction a year later. A plan for companies run by AI agents was softened after expert pushback: a human keeps final legal responsibility.

This month

01

AI-run companies: a human stays in charge

After objections from experts and the opposition, the draft no longer makes AI agents legally responsible.

02

Stargate still on paper

A year after the announcement the Patagonia campus is still being defined, and later reports cite lower figures.

What to watch next
  • A final investment decision on Stargate Argentina
  • The AI-company bill in Congress
  • Energy and water permits in Patagonia
What to do

Treat Argentina's AI mega-projects as options, not capacity; for local operations, the light regime lowers compliance cost, but EU or US customers will still expect AI Act-style safeguards.

Stargate Argentina: a year after the letter of intent, construction of the Patagonia campus has not started

OpenAI and Sur Energy announced up to $25B and 500 MW in October 2025; the project is still being defined and later reports cite lower figures. Treat headline AI-campus numbers as options, not capacity.
