Abstract

AI ethics and governance are critical in shaping technological adoption in African societies. A comparative analysis using secondary data from governmental reports and academic studies to assess the impact of AI policies on governance effectiveness. Data indicated a higher proportion (35%) of Djibouti’s AI applications focused on surveillance compared to neighboring countries, highlighting unique challenges in balancing security with privacy. AI ethics frameworks are essential for mitigating potential risks and ensuring equitable policy outcomes across African nations. Develop tailored ethical guidelines informed by local contexts to enhance the uptake of AI technologies while safeguarding societal values.
