description |
Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly
emerged as an important topic for the global development
agenda, and the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic is also
yielding new and innovative AI applications and solutions.
However, the development of AI technologies remains heavily
concentrated in a small number of advanced economies which
have access to a strong local talent pool, a robust research
and development base and access to capital to fuel growth
through investment. Many countries that have seen broad
development and adoption also have a national strategic
direction for AI defined by their governments. This working
paper explores some of these approaches to AI across 11
countries at different stages of digital maturity and
economic development, mapping initiatives to different
policy domain areas and identifying the tools and
instruments that have been proposed to implement AI strategies. |
