Ecuadorian Spanish in the face of artificial Intelligence: Ecuador facing intelligence

At the current technological crossroads, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping modes of human communication and, with it, the future of languages. Major normative institutions, such as the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), have raised alarms about the risk of Spanish being degraded or fragmented in the hands of unsupervised algorithms, driving global projects such as LEIA (Lengua Española e Inteligencia Artificial).However, this work raises a fundamental question that is often lost in the global strategy: What Spanish will machines speak?Gregorio Gualavisí's El Español Ecuatoriano frente a la Inteligencia Artificial argues that a centralized defensive strategy is not enough. If language models are trained exclusively with "neutral" or peninsular Spanish, the richness, identity and unique nuances of the Ecuadorian variant run the risk of being rendered invisible, or worse, corrected as "errors" by the technology of the future.
