contents <p>African societies are increasingly integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and data-driven governance mechanisms to address socio-economic challenges, particularly in Senegal where these technologies have been implemented in various sectors such as agriculture, environment, and earth sciences. The analysis draws upon existing literature, interviews with key stakeholders including government officials, technology developers, and community leaders, and case studies of AI applications in Senegalese contexts. While AI in Senegal offers promising solutions to agricultural challenges, it is imperative that governance frameworks are robust and inclusive to safeguard against potential ethical dilemmas associated with data privacy and ownership. Senegalese policymakers should prioritise the development of comprehensive data protection laws and establish mechanisms for public engagement in decisions related to AI applications. Additionally, fostering local innovation ecosystems can help ensure equitable benefits from these technologies.</p>
