As the United National Congress (UNC) proposes the establishment of a Ministry of Artificial Intelligence, Minister of Digital Transformation Hassel Bacchus argues that artificial intelligence is already embedded in the technology we use daily.
Speaking at the launch of the Ministry’s 29th ICT Access Centre at the Techier Village Community Centre in Point Fortin yesterday, Bacchus underscored the integration of AI across various government ministries, including healthcare and finance.
“I do not know anywhere in the world where they have ministries of a technology. I have never seen a ministry of mobile, a ministry of cellular, a ministry of 5G, or a ministry of 4G. It is important to understand that AI is a tool. It is a part of life; it is something we are using right now. Whether you know it or not, we are using it. AI is embedded in chips; it is embedded in everything we do,” Bacchus said.
