Evidence snapshot for Baghdad
Baghdad's customs revenue surged dramatically following the deployment of AI-assisted risk-scoring through ASYCUDA World, with Baghdad International Airport revenue rising over 215% between January–May 2024 versus 2023. However, the stricter fee assessments left approximately 76,000 containers uncollected at ports, highlighting implementation challenges. On the education front, the University of Baghdad announced a new College of Artificial Intelligence for the 2025/26 academic year, though the college had not yet opened and independent reporting identifies significant obstacles including faculty shortages, infrastructure gaps, and the absence of a legal and ethical AI framework.
