Abstract
The preliminary observation that inspires this study is the slow
progress of artificial intelligence and technology in Lesotho. Lesotho has not
adopted any artificial intelligence policy and task force till today, and this
has manifested hindrance in the country’s development in many respects.
Many countries are acclimatizing to the new phenomenon of Artificial
intelligence, and many countries in Asia and Europe, America and some in Africa
have commenced the journey of AI policy making, legal frame work and
implementation of AI task forces. Artificial intelligence since its establishment
into the industry has proven that the world gets better with the core existence
of technology and human. This was proven by Bill Gates when he stated that AI
is the strongest helping hand to humans, stating it can be used to address
difficult challenges that are beyond human power and mind. He states that even
though AI comes with risks, innovation comes with new risks that need to be
managed. In its rapid growth, AI has developed innovative capabilities of both
governments and international organizations. In the modern world, AI is the
major factor in development and economic growth. Countries like India utilize
artificial intelligence in many aspects of their development. India established
an AI task force on the 24th August 2017 with its main objectives being to
create policy and legal framework for controlling technology, to provide
recommendations to the government on how to utilize AI in defense of India, and
provide how it in manufacturing areas can be used. The task force comprises of
four committees that are responsible for submitting annual reports. India has
taken steps towards the development of AI which would be of great importance if
countries like Lesotho adopt such measures and move towards the right direction
of AI development. This paper seeks to evaluate measures taken by both
countries and how adopting the AI task force in Lesotho would help in its
development.
