AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

AI Security Overhaul: President Irfaan Ali just laid out Guyana’s 2030 plan for AI-backed borders and “virtual police stations,” with smart 24/7 police facilities, online crime reporting, integrated national databases, and real-time command-and-control centres—plus facial recognition, predictive policing, and smart surveillance tied into a single shared interface. CCTV Push: The government also says it’s aiming for full national CCTV coverage by 2030, with over 20,000 cameras and sensors linked to traffic and emergency response. Traffic Enforcement Upgrade: A mobile AI system is already being used to track and intercept drivers with unpaid tickets, after a pilot reportedly flagged 250 vehicles. Copyright Consultations: Ali says consultations on modernising copyright and IP laws are coming soon, including input from the artistic community. Regional Crime Support: The US announced US$8M for Caribbean forensic labs to boost fentanyl detection, training, and court-ready forensic work. Caribbean Youth Spotlight: The Caribbean Global Youth Awards 2026 will honour young leaders across the region in Saint Lucia on June 6.
