ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & THE CHALLENGE OF READINESS IN ALGERIA

This research paper aims to shed light on Algeria's readiness to adopt artificial intelligence technology, by comparing it with the readiness of different countries of the world from different geographical regions, such as America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and some Arab countries, this was done based on indicators taken from the Oxford Insight website for government readiness to adopt artificial intelligence (2022). In order to achieve the objectives of the research, researchers used the analytical descriptive approach, by analyzing and studying the indicators and numbers of the three main pillars of artificial intelligence readiness, which in turn are divided into nine dimensions, and then draw the results, as this study concluded that Algeria still does not rise to the acceptable level of readiness to adopt artificial intelligence technology, The study also revealed the existence of a very deep digital gap between Algeria and the various developed countries of the world, which requires concerted efforts to reduce it, in order to develop artificial intelligence technology in the future.
