Kenya should tax AI agents just as it does human employees

Today in Business Talk, we continue our miniseries on businesses preparing for the artificial intelligence take-over of almost all office jobs within five years. It will not be large language model chatbots that replace workers, but instead these autonomous AI agents which get assigned tasks and then work on them continuously and repeatedly without needing any human prompts or interactions

Unfortunately, the tax regimes set up in most countries heavily favour the use of AI agents and encourage firms to eliminate their human labour.
