Kenya targets OpenAI, Meta in foreign AI models control plan
International AI companies whose products are used in Kenya could be required to comply with Kenyan AI rules even if they have no physical presence in the country.
Kenya seeks to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) models used in the country or affecting residents, even when the companies that own them do not have local operations.
A new proposal by the ICT Ministry extends the government’s control to overseas tech firms such as ChatGPT maker OpenAI and Facebook’s parent Meta, whose AI systems are increasingly being adopted by Kenyan businesses, government offices and private users.
