Artificial intelligence is transforming economies worldwide and South Africa is ensuring no one gets left behind. The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), in partnership with SAICA and global collaborators, has launched a groundbreaking AI Maturity Assessment and live dashboard to track the nation’s progress.

In this episode of The Social Impact Show, Sam Marshall speaks with Msizi Gwala from SAICA about why accountants are stepping into the AI conversation, how this framework will guide investment, policy, and innovation, and why ethics, trust, and inclusivity must be at the heart of South Africa’s AI journey.
