    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. From the outset, I support this important business and I would like to say the following: When we discuss AI, we are not discussing Kenya as secluded from the rest of the world. So, if we continue saying as a country that we want to avoid AI to protect the jobs of our children, we need to know that it is not we who will use AI. AI will be used by the same children. And we will not prevent the rest of the world from evolving in AI because Kenya is not prepared. Our lack of preparedness does not tell what the world will do. So, we need a Regulation because we have a young generation. I like what one of our colleagues from the Ugandan Parliament said. That being born in Kenya is like being in Form 6 in Uganda. We have a generation that is so quick to learn. Yesterday, I looked at the news and I wish to first say sorry for what happened yesterday about the man who was shot. We cannot even tell you who the man is, because within a few minutes, they had created so many faces. They would say, this one who has been shot is from here. So, we had like 10 or 20 images of people that had already been created online, of those who had been shot. This can bring chaos and confusion. About the policeman who did what, we had a face immediately. After two minutes, we had another one. So, we need a Regulation because you cannot control that. We cannot say that we can prevent young people from using AI because it is the next frontier of development in the world. We cannot close ourselves inside the country and be afraid of what is coming because AI is here with us and the most important thing for a country is to be prepared. The best preparedness for this House that makes laws, is to have a law that will guide AI and its use in the country. Thank you. I support."
