AI and THE GLOBAL SOUTH
The discussions between President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping on Artificial Intelligence send an important message: nations may compete in technology, but they should not compete in destroying our shared future.

The United States and China will continue to compete over chips, computing power, data, AI models and technological influence. But as we learned from the nuclear era, great-power competition also requires rules, communication and guardrails to prevent competition from turning into catastrophe.

But from the Global South, we must ask a different question:

If the data is ours, the users are ours, and the problems are ours, but the models, computing infrastructure and platforms are owned elsewhere, how much of the AI economy will actually belong to us?

This is where Africa must change its mindset.

The first digital revolution largely made us consumers of technologies created elsewhere. The AI revolution must make us creators.

We do not need to choose between Washington and Beijing. We need to work with both while building our own capabilities.

The United States and China may lead the AI race, but they should not be the only ones writing the rules of that race.

Because AI safety is not only about preventing machines from becoming dangerous. It is also about ensuring that technology does not create a world divided between nations that own intelligence and nations that rent intelligence.

Africa therefore does not want to be merely a market for AI.

We want a seat at the table.
We want to build.
We want to own.
We want to innovate.
And we want a voice in shaping the future of AI.

Because in the age of AI, true sovereignty will not be measured only by our flags, borders or natural resources, it will also be measured by our ability to own, build and shape the technologies that define our future.

@Nnauye_Nape Point nzuri ila kwa Africa kuna kizazi cha ku deal na ku compete na hawa jamaaa kweli? China wako almost 10G na AI wanasoma kuanzia shule ya msingi?
