PM Browne Eyes AI to Transform Public Services Ahead of UWI Conference
Prime Minister Gaston Browne has outlined plans to enhance public sector services using artificial intelligence, as Antigua and Barbuda prepares for the second annual UWI Five Islands AI Research Conference.
Speaking on Pointe FM, Browne said the government is focusing on AI-driven improvements in healthcare and education, which will require significantly increased internet bandwidth.
“I expect, for example, that we’ll be acquiring medical technologies driven by AI,” he said. “Even the delivery of pedagogy in schools—using smart boards for complex subjects like maths and physics—will demand ten times the current bandwidth.”
The Prime Minister stressed the importance of the CELIA Submarine Cable System in supporting the digital transformation, noting that traditional providers would make such bandwidth cost-prohibitive.
While acknowledging the high costs of infrastructure, including an estimated US$20 million for subsea cable investments and maintenance, Browne said the government is committed to reducing long-term internet costs and improving digital access for all.
“The plan is there, we are raising the necessary resources; we are implementing—so this is not just talk,” he said.

Interesting move. AI could really help streamline public services if used right.
All well and good, but fix di internet first before yuh talk AI.
AI? Me still dey wait pon dem to answer phone at government office.
This is a bold direction. If done well, Antigua could set a regional example.
Will this mean fewer public servants in the long run? That part worries me.
Me glad dem looking ahead, but nuh forget de basics need fixing too.
This shows a poor under privilege society that a head of state could outfit himself with a visual goggles and pronounce serious statements as far as a nation because he had have his senses stimulated on a 3D platform

Antigua and Barbuda prepares for the second annual UWI Five Islands AI Research Conference. Gaston keeps gaslighting the public and ANR is assisting him.
What AI conference?
How using Ai to reduce crime?
How about using Ai to reduce the backlog of cases that the police and major crime squads don’t seem to be able to solve.
How about using AI to reduce the large number of semi- illiterates by teaching young men to read and count “basic math and facts.”
