As part of our project in Chad, funded by the European Union, we are continuing this week in N’Djamena our five-day LEAD-AI training program for members and staff of the Constitutional Council. The third day of training focused on the safe and responsible use of artificial intelligence, highlighting the importance of data protection, information security, and human vigilance when integrating these technologies into the institution’s daily work.
Led by Aous Qutaishat, our LEAD-AI trainer, this training is based on our Leadership & Artificial Intelligence Skills for Electoral Stakeholders (LEAD-AI) methodology, under the theme “AI to support your work, under your control”. It aims to strengthen participants’ skills in the practical use of AI, while raising their awareness of its limitations and associated risks.
During the morning session, participants raised several questions about the security of AI tools and data protection. In response, Aous Qutaishat stressed that no technology can guarantee absolute security without constant vigilance from its users. He also highlighted that security measures are not infallible, as emerging methods of accessing data can expose new vulnerabilities.
These discussions highlighted the importance of human vigilance, information confidentiality, and the protection of sensitive documents, particularly in the context of a judicial institution’s activities. The use of AI must therefore be accompanied by constant attention to risks and an understanding of the limitations of security measures.
Through this training, we continue to support the modernisation of the Constitutional Council’s working methods and the strengthening of its staff’s capacities, promoting the efficient, secure and responsible use of artificial intelligence, while ensuring that human judgement remains central to institutional decision-making.
