The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) is hosting an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Hackathon on October 14, 2025 – November 20, 2025. The theme for the AI Hackathon is Ethical and Responsible AI in the Financial Sector. The theme addresses the need to ensure that as institutions leverage AI and Machine Learning (ML) for the benefit of customers and efficient service delivery, they also prioritise ethical and responsible use of the technology. This is important, given that the use of AI has brought about concerns on biased data and models, explainability of ML models, data privacy, and governance issues.
