Congo's National Assembly adopts AI ethics rules in a research law

National Assembly of CongoThe National Assembly of Congo passed a bill steering scientific research and technological innovation, a text carried by the Ministry of Scientific Research and Technological Innovation to modernise the sector and absorb what artificial intelligence now demands. This Congo AI regulation writes an ethical framework around such technologies and stands up a national committee accountable for responsible use, answering to norms in force and to social values. Caria is also foreseen to organise work in the field. Jean-Luc Marcel Mouthou, whose portfolio covers preschool, primary and secondary education plus literacy, presented these AI governance rules to deputies, calling them an important step.

Loi n° 29-2019 portant protection des données à caractère personnel

Parlement de la République du CongoA 2019 statute in the Republic of Congo, Loi n° 29-2019 portant protection des données à caractère personnel, forbids AI in judicial decision-making from being the sole basis for assessing someone's character or conduct in court rulings. Article 13 blocks any legally binding decision from resting purely on automated profiling in court rulings or personality assessment. Oversight falls to a newly created body, the National Personal Data Protection Commission (CNPD), and the rules took hold once printed in the official journal on 7 November 2019.

    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 2920 entries across 249 countries.
