Algiers, Algeria | July 4th, 2024 — Under the leadership of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Algeria is firmly committed to incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) into various sectors. This dedication was highlighted by Kamel Baddari at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai.

Strategic Integration of AI

In his address, Baddari emphasized Algeria’s initiative to embed AI within scientific, educational, and economic sectors to enhance competitiveness and innovation. Key steps in this strategic integration include the establishment of a Scientific Council for Artificial Intelligence, a consultative body responsible for developing a multisectoral strategy for AI advancement. Additionally, the creation of specialized academic institutions, such as the National School of Artificial Intelligence, reflects Algeria’s dedication to advancing this technological frontier.

Principles for Global AI Governance

Baddari proposed a set of principles for global AI governance, stressing the importance of equitable access to AI technologies. This approach aims to ensure that all countries, particularly emerging ones, can benefit from AI and bridge the digital divide. He underscored the need for ethical AI usage and the protection of intellectual property rights related to national data.

Enhancing Competitiveness and Innovation

This AI initiative, spearheaded by President Tebboune, aims to leverage AI to boost Algeria’s global competitiveness and innovation capabilities. By prioritizing equitable access and ethical considerations, Algeria aspires to position itself as a leader in the responsible deployment of AI technologies.

Algeria’s active participation in the World Artificial Intelligence Conference and its outlined strategy demonstrate a strong commitment to integrating AI across critical sectors. This forward-thinking approach not only aims to enhance national capabilities but also contributes to the global discourse on responsible and equitable AI development.
