Authors : Hamni Houria . Mihoub Sameh . Benmahamed Houda .

Abstract

This study aims to provide an exploratory mapping of early AI initiatives in the Algerian insurance sector through multiple cases. Using a qualitative approach, research suggests that AI adoption unfolds within a multi-level ecosystem comprising operational, analytical, customer interaction, and institutional dimensions. Preliminary findings indicate improved efficiency, enhanced fraud detection, better customer service, and asymmetric adoption driven by institutional gaps and capability differences. The study proposes an AI Adoption Ecosystem Framework and introduces the concept of asymmetric AI adoption in emerging markets as a tentative analytical lens.
