Do universities publish official guidance on generative AI use? We checked 187 universities — QS 2026 ranks 1–150 plus 37 Global South flagships — page by page, on their own official domains. Headline: 77% publish guidance, and not one of the top 100 imposes a campus-wide AI ban. The policy gap maps onto the wealth gap: 92% of the top 50 publish guidance vs 46% of Global South flagships.

31 leading universities across Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, audited on two questions: do they publish a public AI usage policy, and what AI programs do they teach? Only 6 of 31 (19%) publish a verifiable policy — yet 58% teach AI programs. Institutions are teaching AI roughly three times faster than they are governing it. Turkmenistan and Tajikistan are near-complete blind spots.
