Durante los últimos tres años, Chile ha consolidado su liderazgo en inteligencia artificial (IA) en América Latina. Según el último Índice Latinoamericano de Inteligencia Artificial (ILIA), el país alcanzó 70.5 puntos, reflejando la solidez de su industria tecnológica y el impulso de políticas públicas orientadas a la innovación y la formación de talento.

El crecimiento no es solo institucional. La inteligencia artificial ya impacta directamente el mercado laboral: de acuerdo con datos de la plataforma Buk, el 23% de los trabajadores en Chile se está capacitando en IA, posicionando al país como el más activo de la región en este campo.

A este indicador se suma un alto interés por la especialización: el 57% de los trabajadores en Chile busca formación técnica y el 54% participa en procesos de transformación digital dentro de sus empresas. Estas cifras no solo reflejan una tendencia interna, sino que también superan el promedio de la región, donde el interés en formación técnica alcanza el 38% y la participación en transformación digital el 41%.

En este contexto, Chile se ha consolidado como un “hub” de talento digital en la región. Factores como los programas del Servicio Nacional de Capacitación y Empleo (SENCE), incentivos fiscales y el crecimiento del ecosistema tecnológico han facilitado el acceso a formación avanzada, incluso en sectores tradicionales. Como resultado, las habilidades digitales están siendo valoradas en el mercado laboral, con incrementos salariales que pueden alcanzar hasta un 30%.

Del aprendizaje a la productividad

Más allá del acceso a la formación, el foco ahora está en su aplicación. Según Buk, uno de los principales desafíos es lograr que el conocimiento adquirido se traduzca en resultados concretos en el trabajo. Sin una aplicación práctica inmediata, hasta el 70% de la información técnica puede perderse en las primeras 48 horas.

La plataforma señala que, cuando el aprendizaje se aplica de manera efectiva, se generan tres beneficios clave en las organizaciones:

• Reducción de errores: los trabajadores que implementan nuevas técnicas digitales cometen menos fallas, ahorrando tiempo y recursos.
• Mayor autonomía: los colaboradores pueden tomar decisiones sin depender constantemente de supervisores, agilizando la cadena de mando.
• Optimización de procesos: los empleados capacitados sugieren mejoras en los flujos de trabajo, generando un retorno de inversión real.

De acuerdo con la información de Buk, las empresas líderes y exitosas en capacitación en 2026 han adoptado el modelo 70-20-10, en el que el 70% del aprendizaje ocurre en la práctica, el 20% a través de interacción social y solo el 10% en cursos teóricos. Esta metodología ha demostrado su eficacia al reducir errores, aumentar la autonomía y optimizar los procesos internos.

Persisten, no obstante, barreras que pueden limitar el impacto de la capacitación: la falta de tiempo, la resistencia al cambio en los mandos medios y la ausencia de herramientas adecuadas. Para superarlas, Buk recomienda estrategias como proyectos piloto, formación de líderes y personalización de contenidos según los indicadores clave de cada área.

El resultado de estas prácticas es lo que algunos expertos identifican como el “modelo chileno de productividad digital”. En este esquema, la capacitación tecnológica no solo impulsa la eficiencia, sino que también fortalece la competitividad nacional.

AUSCHWITZ: A Holocaust survivor from Canada has warned about growing antisemitism in his country, calling on the nation’s leaders to take action against perpetrators.

Nate Leipciger spoke at the annual March of the Living at Auschwitz in Poland on Tuesday as thousands gathered to commemorate those killed in the Holocaust against a backdrop of growing antisemitism in the world. 

The 98-year-old said he was recently targeted in Toronto when mezuzahs (sacred parchment scrolls) were forcibly removed from apartment doors in his building. 

The violence increased in March when his synagogue was also targeted in a drive-by shooting. «The front doors and lobby were destroyed. It is terrible that we have lost our sense of security,» Leipciger told Fox News Digital.

«Once you lose that, you no longer know when or where the next attack might occur. It is deeply troubling to live in a free, democratic country — where everyone is meant to have equal rights — and to be persecuted in this way,» he added.

Born in Poland in 1928, Leipciger was deported to Auschwitz in 1943. He survived multiple camps and a death march before being liberated in 1945, later immigrating to Canada in 1948.

The only way to prevent history from repeating itself, he said, is to advocate for the truth and confront deception and lies.

«The running is over. For centuries, we ran. We have to stand up for our right to live as Jews in any country, including Israel, as free citizens enjoying the fruits of Western culture, of which we are part,» he added.

Since the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, massacre, Canada has seen a sharp rise in antisemitism, with B’nai Brith Canada reporting 6,219 incidents in 2024 — more than double the number recorded in 2022.

While figures for 2025 have yet to be released, Public Safety Canada noted that from April to June 2025, «Among hate crimes targeting religion… the majority were directed at the Jewish community (69%).»

CANADA’S CARNEY UNDER PRESSURE TO ACT AFTER SYNAGOGUES SHOT AT IN LATEST ANTISEMITIC INCIDENTS

Canadian Jewish communities are «extremely concerned» about a surge in antisemitism, a reality conveyed by Israeli officials both privately and publicly to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government.

«We are aware of extreme concern among Jewish communities in Canada about their safety and well-being, both as individuals and as communities, including their institutions,» Israeli Ambassador to Ottawa Ido Moed told Fox News Digital. «Israel views the recent attacks against synagogues as very serious and considers Canada among the high-risk countries in terms of shooting incidents.»

Moed said Israel has offered to expand cooperation with Canada across areas including education and security coordination, and has initiated roundtable discussions on policy, regulation and best practices.

U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism Yehuda Kaploun told Fox News Digital at Auschwitz that leadership accountability is critical to confronting antisemitism.

«It is incumbent upon law enforcement in various countries to designate terrorist organizations, as we have done with certain aspects of the Muslim Brotherhood and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The world should do so collectively, and America is leading the way in that battle,» Kaploun said.

Earlier this month, shots were fired at a Jewish-owned restaurant in Toronto during Passover. In March, Israel’s minister of Diaspora affairs and combating antisemitism, Amichai Chikli, sent a letter urging Ottawa to increase efforts to protect Jewish communities after three synagogues in the Toronto area were hit by gunfire within just one week.

Richard Marceau, senior vice president of strategic initiatives and general counsel at the Center for Israel and Jewish Affairs, noted that Jewish Canadians are 25 times more likely than any other group to be victims of hate crimes.

«What we have seen in Canada is an all-level systemic failure to address Jew-hatred,» he told Fox News Digital.

«Confronting this crisis is essential not only to protect the Jewish community, but to safeguard the future of the Canadian way of life,» he continued. «All levels of government must do more to protect Canadians, including ensuring robust and consistent enforcement of existing laws, improving transparency in prosecutorial decisions, strengthening support – including financially – for community security, and addressing the drivers of radicalization in Canada.»

SanJaya Wijayakoon, an RCMP superintendent in Vancouver who joined a global law enforcement delegation on the March of the Living, said engagement with the Jewish community is central to policing.

«A big part of our work is to build contacts and maintain strong relationships through which we can receive information, provide advice and guidance on ensuring safety, and, if something crosses the line into criminality, investigate it fully,» he said.

«I think as the years pass, fewer and fewer people within the police understand what happened in 1945 in Europe. Being in this program and on this march allows us to return and speak to our people about what I learned and observed, and they can apply it in their day-to-day work,» he added.

Sylvan Adams, president of the World Jewish Congress Israel Region, pointed to the recent synagogue shootings in Toronto and criticized the government’s response as insufficient.

«I would like to see the prime minister properly define the problem and stop pussyfooting around, pretending radical Islam does not exist,» Adams said.

«We are under attack. Foreign actors are operating in Western countries in three areas: they are sending radical imams into mosques, they are investing massive amounts of money in educational systems and they are targeting us on social media. I find the response by Western leaders, with the exception of President Trump, to be entirely lacking,» he said.

«Everyone in the West needs to wake up. They are trying to take away our freedom. It starts with the Jews but never ends with the Jews,» he added.

President Donald Trump said he is «prepared» to appoint up to three Supreme Court justices if vacancies arise, signaling he is ready to further reshape the high court as speculation swirls around a potential retirement from Justice Samuel Alito.

Trump told Fox Business’ Maria Bartiromo that Alito, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, could retire and that he has a shortlist of nominees in mind, though he did not mention any names. 

The remarks sharpen the stakes around any potential vacancy, as Trump signaled he is ready to seize the opportunity to deepen the court’s conservative majority. With retirement speculation around Alito intensifying and Republicans eyeing the window before the 2026 midterms, the prospect of an opening is already putting fresh focus on succession politics. 

«In theory, it’s two — you just read the statistics — it could be two, could be three, could be one,» Trump said. «I don’t know. I’m prepared to do it. But when you mention Alito, he is a great justice.»

Rumors about Alito, 76, potentially retiring have grown because of his age, his two-decade tenure on the bench and speculation that he may want to make sure a conservative successor is confirmed by the current Republican-led Senate, especially before the upcoming midterm elections in which Republicans are at risk of losing or seeing a diminished majority.

The rumors were further fueled when it was revealed Alito was treated last month for dehydration after becoming ill at a Federalist Society dinner. A Supreme Court spokesperson clarified at the time that the justice was «thoroughly checked» and returned to the bench the following Monday.

TRUMP DISMISSES CALLS FOR ALITO, THOMAS TO STEP DOWN FROM SUPREME COURT, CALLING THEM ‘FANTASTIC’

Justice Clarence Thomas, an appointee of President George H.W. Bush, has drawn less retirement speculation despite being one year older than Alito at 77 and his own lengthy tenure. Thomas has been a conservative fixture on the court for more than three decades and holds a record as the second-longest serving justice in history.

Trump noted what he viewed as an upside to replacing Alito, who sides with him on nearly every high-profile court case, but said it would come at a cost.

«Justice Alito is an unbelievable justice, and a brilliant justice, and he gets the country,» Trump said. «He does what’s right for the country. It’s the law, and he goes by it as much as anybody, but he gets to the point. That’s good for our country. So … one way you should be, ‘Oh, I’m thrilled,’ but he’s so good.»

While many prominent conservative judges, from appellate court Judge James Ho to Florida-based federal Judge Aileen Cannon, have been floated as options in legal circles, Trump has not publicly revealed any of his preferences at this stage.

Senate Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, told reporters this week he would recommend Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, or Mike Lee, R-Utah, as top candidates if Alito were to retire. Grassley emphasized that he hoped Alito would not step down but said his committee is «fully prepared» to process a nominee before the upcoming midterm elections if needed.

Cruz said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital that having his name in the mix was a «high honor» but that he did not want the job.

«The reason I’ve said no is that a principled federal judge stays out of policy fights and stays out of political fights. … But I don’t want to stay out of policy fights. I don’t want to stay out of political fights,» Cruz said. «I want to be right in the middle of them.»

Lee’s office did not respond to a request for comment.

No president since Ronald Reagan has influenced the Supreme Court more than Trump, who secured three appointments during his first term, underscoring how Trump has shaped the 6-3 ideological divide on the court in favor of conservatives. 

George H.W. Bush appointed two, as did George W. Bush and former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. Former President Joe Biden appointed one, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
