Bahamas says it will give civil servants SmartGov AI tools
Ministry of Innovation and National Development — Sebas Bastian, minister of innovation and national development, told the 2026-2027 Budget debate that SmartGov, a package of AI tools for civil servants, will absorb briefs, research, correspondence and paperwork. The Government will not lay software over today's forms, but rewire the workflow beneath, so a task that used to pass across a desk becomes automatic.

Bahamas Supreme Court issues guidance on generative AI in court proceedings
Supreme Court of The Bahamas — Lawyers appearing before The Bahamas' Supreme Court must now flag any generative AI in court proceedings, under Practice Direction No. 3 of 2025, issued 5 November 2025.

Electricity Act 2024 with artificial intelligence regulation clause
Parliament of The Bahamas — Bahamas' Electricity Act sets AI regulation in the electricity sector under Section 18, letting the Utilities Regulation and Competition Authority write binding rules for artificial intelligence use by power companies. Any such rules must satisfy ten named principles, among them safety, transparency, fairness, accountability and redress alongside security, robustness, explainability, governance and contestability. The statute defines artificial intelligence as tech letting a device or programme be trained or coded to sense surroundings, process data automatically, and produce decisions or suggestions — an unusually direct embedding of AI oversight in utilities law.
Bahari uses AI-generated models for its Coral World collection
Bahari — Bahari posted Facebook images for the Coral World collection on 31 May built around AI-generated models, not photographed people.

General manager Carole Barnett replied that campaigns have leaned on local talent since 2014, and that AI fashion imagery suited this shoot because Coral World itself has closed.

The Utilities Regulation and Competition Authority delivered this shift through a revised Code of Practice for Content Regulation (ECS 78/2024, 20 December 2024), weaving AI-generated content rules into broader service standards rather than issuing a standalone deepfake measure.

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 4731 entries across 249 countries.
