The South African government has published a National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy Framework, which aims to guide the development and adoption of AI in the country. The framework outlines strategic pillars, including talent development, digital infrastructure, research, and innovation, as well as ethical considerations, such as transparency, accountability, and fairness. The policy framework is open for public comment until November 29 and will serve as the basis for creating AI regulations and potentially an AI Act in South Africa. The government aims to promote the responsible and ethical development, deployment, and use of AI to drive economic growth, enhance societal wellbeing, and position South Africa as a leader in AI innovation. 3 replies
