Pakistan’s Ministry of IT against immediate regulation of AI.

It is too soon to regulate Artificial Intelligence, according to Pakistan’s Ministry  of Information Technology and Telecommunication (MoITT). This also comes about as Pakistan’s Senate Secretariat shared the draft text for the “Regulation of Artificial Intelligence Act 2024”, according to TechJuice. The MoITT conceded that regulatoin is necessary, but emphasised that, as per TechJuice, “data governance, data availability, and data protection must be addressed before considering AI regulations.” The MoITT has established an AI Committee to align with the overall National AI Plan, the latter of which has seen as task force formed by the Minister for Planning, Development, and Special Initiatives.
