Context-Aware Africa-Led Designing of Responsible Artificial Intelligence Technologies
摘要
Artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence (AI) (AI) is a general purpose technology (GPT), which is currently enjoying increasing use in strategic decision-making and military affairs. The AI revolution brings significant changes into the current and future socio-economic national and international systems, with AI applications expected to tilt the global balance of power in favour of actors who strategically invest and use this emerging technology. AI-assisted automation is also changing prevailing socio-economic production models on the global scale, and sooner or later, these technologies are expected to exert systemic impacts on the current global order. However, the distribution of AI technologies and skills is not uniform, with the global north dominating the space. Even within the global south, Africa lags way behind other continents.
