Govt to make law on AI: Law Minister

Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Huq has said the government has taken an initiative to formulate a law regarding the artificial intelligence (AI).

The minister said this in a meeting with a delegation of Centre for NRB at the conference room of the ministry on Tuesday noon.

“We are holding primary discussions in this regard. We will definitely discuss the matter with stakeholders before formulating the act”, he said.

“Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina always wants to formulate pro-people laws. That is why, her government kept the scope of holding discussions with stakeholders while formulating acts,” he added.

Addressing a demand raised by Centre for NRB chairperson MS Shekil Chowdhury, the law minister said he would take steps for virtual joining of non-resident Bangladeshis during the meeting with stakeholders while formulating acts.
