Antigua and Barbuda prepares draft legislation to regulate AI

Government of Antigua and Barbuda — Gaston Browne says Antigua and Barbuda has drafted an AI regulation bill to guard against destructive misuse of the technology. Speaking on Point FM, the prime minister linked the draft law to fears that unchecked systems could cause harm, while stressing plans to tap AI gains for creative sectors and government services. The artificial intelligence legislation balances these dangers against economic opportunity.

Antigua and Barbuda launches AI-powered digital border entry system

Government of Antigua and Barbuda — Antigua and Barbuda has switched on ArriveAntigua.com, an AI border entry system at V.C. Bird International Airport that automates passport data capture for arriving and departing travellers. Travellers take a selfie and scan their document, so the software fills their profile and prints a QR code, cutting wait times for customs and immigration officers. The rollout is one strand of the government's wider Project Optimus digitisation drive.

Doctors Medical Centre begins AI-assisted MRI scans before its official opening

Doctors Medical Centre — Doctors Medical Centre has begun AI MRI scanning for the public in Antigua ahead of a formal opening, driven by waits of several weeks elsewhere. The open MRI — described as the region's first, and built for patients who cannot tolerate an enclosed scanner — draws on artificial intelligence to sharpen image accuracy. Dr Joey John, medical director, said anyone may use the service, not solely people queuing through Mount St John's Medical Centre, with the backlog the priority. Qualified specialists staff the site, every machine is new rather than refurbished, and wider AI-enhanced diagnostic imaging is planned.

    Method and sources

    Every entry on this page is a named organisation putting AI to work in a real job, taken from the State of Applied AI record. Each one is traced to the report it came from and dated, and where a figure is the organisation’s own the entry says so rather than presenting it as an independent result. Readiness, ecosystem and policy figures, where shown, are attributed on the card to the body that published them.

    The record is maintained continuously by the Industrial Research Unit of the Straits Institute for Applied AI: entries are added as they are found and verified, not on a schedule, and nothing is published without an open source behind it. It currently holds 1745 entries across 249 countries.
