Artificial intelligence (AI) manifests itself in algorithms whose performance is difficult to predict or explain. These algorithms are applied to issues in the lives of citizens and have begun to be used by electronic government. The application of AI to all fields of knowledge is currently being investigated. Some developments in information science are briefly referred to in the note.

Some of the challenges posed by the application of AI such as bias and opacity are presented. Facing these challenges are opinions from information ethics, the free software movement, and academic research to improve the explainability of AI (XAI). Finally, the Electronic Government strategy in Uruguay is succinctly detailed.The reflection is open and in particular the inclusion of these topics in the academic training is recommended in our career.

Keywords : Artificial intelligence; Information ethics; Explainability; E-government; Uruguay.
