Cuba18 Dec 2025Cuban National Assembly — An AI ethics commission now sits inside Cuba's General Law of Science, Technology and Innovation, covering artificial intelligence research oversight for the first time. The law further binds sector-specific policy to national development goals. Eight chapters and three complementary norms complete the package.
Cuba9 Jul 2025Tribunal Supremo Popular (Supreme Popular Court of Cuba) — Cuba's Supreme Popular Court now has judicial guidance on AI in judicial justice, penned by judge Yojanier Sierra Infante. A single limit governs everything: artificial intelligence stays a supporting aid within the court system, forbidden from standing in for the magistrate or judge's own verdict.
Cuba6 Jul 2025University of Cienfuegos / National Organisation of Collective Law Offices — Cienfuegos lawyers now trial Alic.IA, an AI legal assistant from University of Cienfuegos academics, ahead of expansion across Cuba. It works as both a chatbot for legal practice queries on Cuban criminal law and a system drafting over 60 document types, approved after debuting at the Abogacía 2025 congress in March, following a pilot since late 2024.
Cuba7 Aug 2026Empresa Electrica de La Habana — Empresa Electrica de La Habana will hand dispatchers AI blackout scheduling tools built with mathematicians at the Facultad de Matematicas of the Universidad de La Habana. The utility says the decision-support software, shown to President Miguel Diaz-Canel, should even out how circuits are rotated and push notices to households over Telegram. Nothing is switched on yet: the company describes AI-driven outage rotation as work still under way, aimed at transparency and fairer sharing of cuts.
Cuba28 Apr 2026Television Cubana — Television Cubana has fielded two AI-generated presenters, Ava and Chico, across trailers for the music show Cuerda Viva, appearing as announcers, or reading round-ups and listings. Cari Rojas, communication director of Television Cubana, dates Ava to a Cuerda Viva festival; Ana Rabasa, who runs the show, brought in Chico later. Felito Ruiz, the team's designer, assembled both on no-cost software of limited scope, and calls these virtual TV hosts wholly invented looks, resting on no prior pattern.

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.
