Pakistan Proposes AI Ethics Council for Surveillance Oversight
Published on 8.4.25
A proposed independent Pakistan AI Ethics Council is needed to establish ethical standards for AI development in the country. The council would oversee public audits of AI systems, particularly those related to surveillance, policing, and facial recognition, to ensure human rights and freedom are protected. This move comes as a response to the growing threat posed by unregulated generative AI, which could harm Pakistan's creative economy and public discourse.
