Ignacio Aredez

Chief analyst at Despegue · founder of GENAI AREDEZ (ML engineering and AI governance)

I’m Ignacio Aredez, chief analyst at Despegue. My background is in data science and AI governance: more than 10 years for clients across Europe and the Americas, and I founded GENAI AREDEZ, where I design AI systems with human verification. Despegue is where I apply that to a single question: where is the Argentine economy taking off, and who can get on board.

What is published

Every figure on those pages carries its seal and the link to the source that holds it: today that is 1,308 sources on file. What can be audited is the work, not the résumé.

How every figure is verified →

Verifiable credentials

  • Professional Machine Learning Engineer · Google CloudVerify ↗
  • ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Implementer · ITCERTS, Inc.Verify ↗
  • HackAPrompt 2023 (AI red-teaming) · Learn PromptingVerify ↗

Also: worldwide top 50 in HackAPrompt 2.0 (AI red-teaming, ~32,000 participants) and registered expert in the European Commission’s expert database (Funding & Tenders Portal). Both are verifiable on request: they have no public verification page, and here only what can be opened carries a link.

Why I do this

I do this because I believe in the direction Argentina has taken. I believe you don’t help people by handing them money —that breeds dependency and more poverty— but by giving them tools to become self-sufficient, produce and prosper on their own. Value is created by those who produce, not by the State.

And I believe prosperity has concrete conditions: when property is respected, taxes come down and markets open, people save, invest and grow — and a country can become a power again. Whoever produces competes, and the end user decides, getting the best product at the best price, without the State picking winners. I believe in equality before the law —the same for everyone—, in the freedom of each person to live as they wish, and in the values of the West.

Argentina has what it takes: energy, mining, agriculture, talent. If those rules hold, that wealth turns into real investment and jobs — and that’s what I track, province by province, with verifiable data, not faith. If the path works here, it can change things in many places around the world. Neutral on the data, with a stated opinion: I trust the direction because the numbers back it.

And you can check that right here: I track 18 axes of the programme, one by one, and 2 of them are flagged AT RISK today — published with the same source and the same seal as the rest. See the 18 axes →

Who pays for this

The site is free and sells no advertising and no space: nobody pays to appear on a page, or to change how they appear. What is charged for is the bespoke report a company commissions, and that commission does not change what a page says. It is published by GENAI AREDEZ SRL, of which I am the sole shareholder, and I am the editor responsible: the company details are in the Legal notice.
