The president of Democracy 21, lawyer Miriam González, has proposed promoting Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Spain as a "productivity factor" in all economic sectors, while asking to measure its impact on the labor market to design possible mitigation measures.
In an interview with Europa Press, Miriam González has accused the parties represented in Congress of having "closed" the debate on the evolution of AI and believes that the political attention currently being devoted to this tool is "zero."
From his point of view, both Spain and all of Europe have lost a first part of access to this AI when it comes to "being involved in the large language models", except "a little bit" in France and Germany.
For this reason, it has raised the possibility of implementing a model similar to that of Japan, in which the inclusion of AI as a "productivity factor" in all sectors is debated, especially in those in which Spain is a "leader".
"It has to be something that is done both with the market players and with the public power (...). We also have a lot of observatories in the country, and no one knows what the majority are observing, one of the things that we have to start observing is the impact of AI in the different sectors," he added.
Of course, Miriam González has specified that she does not like talking about State Pacts "very much", claiming that it is what parties use "when they don't know what to propose." His party proposes "to put technology back in Spain as one of the great pillars of education."
End the seizures
However, the president of Democracia 21 has proposed an express reform of the Constitution to eliminate the capacity. "I believe that the constitutional fathers should have recused themselves from being able to approve a vote when they were deputies and senators and they gave themselves a privilege," he maintained.
However, he has specified that his fundamental lines for the general elections on November 29 do not imply other constitutional reforms, emphasizing that his request is that "the Constitution be complied with."
When asked about the debate between monarchy or republic, Miriam González considers that "it is not the priority now."
Your position on the amnesty
Regarding the current situation in Catalonia, the president of Democracia 21 has said that she would not have made an amnesty as approved by the Government of Pedro Sánchez: "A measure of that impact cannot be put on the table without having requested an electoral mandate."
However, once this measure was approved, Miriam González believes that Catalan society like Spain "has given a lesson in maturity to politicians looking towards the future", giving as an example the "very crucial" debates such as housing or education.
Regarding the debate on co-official languages, Miriam González has detected that the situation "is now very different from where it was a few years ago." "What I want for all young people, both in Catalonia and anywhere else, is for them to speak the maximum number of languages possible," he said.
Opinion about Israel
Regarding her position on the recognition of the Palestinian State, Miriam González has specified that Democracy 21 does not have an official position right now because it is focusing on this political campaign, but she personally believes that the situation being seen by the Government of Israel is "unacceptable."
In any case, he has diagnosed as "one of the problems" that currently exists in Europe and in Spain is the "loss of power" in the region: "Now we focus on the statements of each other, and perhaps we should also leave a little impact of regaining real influence in the region. We are practically spectators watching everything as if it were a tennis match."
Likewise, he stressed that trade relations with Israel "are complex" because there are dependencies in some areas of cybersecurity and technology "that all of Europe has to consider." "And of course all these positions must be coordinated within the European Union, which is the only place where we can gain influence," he added.
He is not afraid to get back on the AVE
The president of Democracia 21 has also referred to the Urda train accident, maintaining that investment in Spain "is not at the level it should be" and focusing on the "command structures" in public companies.
As she said, she is not afraid of getting on the AVE, but she does understand society's "prevention" after the last two accidents.
Regarding the post-electoral scenario, Miriam González has vindicated her specific measures for these November 29 elections, adding that her party will support the party that is willing to approve the "unavoidable" measures in the first 20 days of Government.
