Museveni, who spoke on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, added that a universal approach had proved ineffective in addressing the issue of Africa’s development.
“People who are enthusiastic about artificial intelligence are those who already have infrastructure and human resources developed,” he said, according to a statement released Thursday by the presidential palace.
