Dodoma/Dar. The government has called for the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into Tanzania’s healthcare transformation agenda, warning that weak data protection systems could expose the country to digital colonialism.

Speaking during the opening of the Scientific Health Conference (USCHe) organised by the University of Dodoma (UDOM), Deputy Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Health Emmanuel Tayari said modern healthcare development could not ignore the growing role of AI.
