From Subject to Creator: Africa Can Become Global Laboratory for AI & Digital Justice—Beninese Scientist

African nations have the potential to transform technology into "a very powerful diplomatic and legal shield," mathematician and data scientist Dr. Houankpo Hector Gibson Kinmanhon told Sputnik Africa.

AI as a Legal Shield

Modern AI models can now track ethnic cleansing, identify prohibited weapons, and detect deepfakes with over 95% accuracy, effectively turning massive data streams into tangible court evidence, according to him.

🟢Africa's Unique Opportunity

Driven by the unprecedented judicial pressure it faces, the continent possesses all the necessary assets to emerge as a leading international hub for AI and digital justice, Kinmanhon noted.

A Cautionary Note

However, the realization of this potential requires strict data governance and a rigorous ethical framework to ensure these digital tools do not become a new form of domination over the population, the expert emphasized.
