AEPD has published guidance on agentic AI

 

Original Post in LinkedIn

I have been saying for a while that AI is no longer just about models… it is about systems that act.

Now regulators are catching up.

The Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has published guidance on agentic AI from a data protection perspective.

And this is important.

Because agentic AI is fundamentally different. These are not systems that just answer… they decide, interact, and execute autonomously to achieve goals.

That changes everything.

It changes how data is accessed, how decisions are made, and how responsibility is assigned. And one key message stands out: using AI does not remove accountability. Organizations remain fully responsible for data protection, transparency, and control.

From an architecture perspective, this reinforces something we often underestimate.

You cannot build agentic AI on top of weak data foundations.

Governance, data minimization, traceability, and privacy-by-design are no longer compliance topics… they are core system design principles.

We are entering a phase where:

AI architecture = Data architecture + Governance + Responsibility

And the more autonomous the system becomes, the more intentional the design must be.

This is not about slowing innovation.
It’s about making it sustainable.

Análisis de la película “K19” desde la perspectiva de Braybrooke y Lindblom

Introducción En las siguientes páginas se analizará una película dirigida y producida por Kathryn Bigelow llamada “K19 – The Widowmaker” estrenada en el año 2002, basada en hechos reales que fueron ocultados durante 30 años en la extinta Unión Soviética. Para dicho análisis se utilizará como base teórica el capítulo 5, “The Strategy of  Disjointed Incrementalism”, del libro Strategy of Decisión de David Braybrooke y Charles E. Lindblom. El motivo de dicho análisis es intentar relacionar la teoría del pensamiento estratégico en la toma de decisiones según la perspectiva de la lectura. 

Análisis de la película “Thirteen Days” desde la perspectiva de Weber y Graham T. Allison

Introducción En las siguientes páginas se analizará una película dirigida por Roger Donaldson llamada “Thirteen Days” estrenada en el año 2000, basada en hechos reales que fueron vividos a nivel mundial donde se vieron involucrados tres países, Cuba como el foco central de la discordia entre los Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética. Para dicho análisis se utilizará como base teórica los puntos 1 y 2 del Tomo I del libro Economía y Sociedad de Max Weber. Adicionalmente se tomará el Capítulo 1: “Model I: The Racional Actor” del libro Essence of Decision. Explaining the Cuban Missile Crisis de Graham T. Allison. El motivo de dicho análisis es intentar relacionar la teoría de la dominación y de los modelos conceptuales para la toma de decisiones según las perspectivas de las lecturas.

The apocalyptic AI narratives era

 The AI industry may be entering a strange phase where narrative engineering advances faster than the underlying engineering itself. That does not mean frontier AI is fake. It is not. The progress is real. Models are improving quickly in coding, search, reasoning assistance, content generation, and cybersecurity analysis. Anyone working seriously in enterprise technology can already see the productivity impact. AI is becoming operationally useful. But something else is happening in parallel. Every few months, another company announces that its newest model is so powerful, so dangerous, or so transformative that humanity must proceed carefully. The language changes slightly each cycle, but the structure remains almost identical: existential concern, dramatic warnings, selective access, media amplification, institutional reaction, investor excitement, and another jump in valuation. At some point, it becomes reasonable to ask whether we are witnessing purely a technological revolution...
