Kenya is on track to unveil a national artificial intelligence (AI) strategy by May 2025, aiming to address the rapid growth of AI technology. The strategy, led by John Tanui from the Ministry of ICT and Digital Economy, will incorporate global best practices and is expected to be finalized soon. This initiative is crucial as Kenya currently lacks a legal framework for AI deployment, raising concerns about safety and data privacy.
The draft Kenya National Artificial Intelligence Strategy 2025-2030 will establish a governance framework to guide AI use across various sectors, including healthcare and agriculture. The private sector is pivotal in adopting AI technologies, with transparency being essential for broader acceptance. However, the International Monetary Fund warns that without adequate infrastructure and skilled workforce, AI could exacerbate inequality in developing nations like Kenya.
