Africafé: La régulation de l’intelligence artificielle en Afrique

February 22, 2024

La révolution intelligence artificielle submerge l’Afrique, en proie à d’importantes transitions. Reposant sur un processus d’imitation de l’intelligence humaine qui se base sur la création et l’application d’algorithmes, l’intelligence artificielle qui constitue le pilier de la quatrième révolution industrielle, est en mesure d’assoir l’émergence de l’Afrique, tout en accélérant la transformation de nombreux secteurs dont dépendra le futur du continent, notamment l’économie, l’agriculture, la santé, l’éducation et les services financiers. Cependant, bien que l’intelligence artificielle prend une place de plus en plus importante dans l’économie et les sociétés africaines, ses applications diverses, balbutiantes ou bien installées dans des secteurs d’activités variés, rendent sa régulation difficile au regard des enjeux industriels et éthiques qui l’accompagnent. La régulation de l’intelligence artificielle en Afrique qui consiste à encadrer le développement des technologies de l’IA, tout en favorisant l’innovation technologique, est dès lors indispensable pour éviter toute forme de dérive juridique. Si les Etats-Unis et l’UE ont un temps d’avance dans le domaine de la régulation de l’IA l’intelligence artificielle, l’Afrique compte bien rattraper son retard
