AI sovereignty starts with language, but it doesn’t end there.

Yesterday at AI:Casablanca, I shared a simple conviction: if AI is going to reshape work in Morocco, it must understand Morocco, and it must be built on a truly local ecosystem.

Because a large language model is never just a model.

It is the visible layer of a much deeper stack: data, speech, NLP, embeddings, evaluation, infrastructure, and the cultural context behind how people actually speak, work, learn, and make decisions.

For underrepresented languages, much of that stack does not yet exist. I had to build Sawalni from the ground up, and this is the reason Omneity Labs exists.

And a sovereign LLM cannot only be local in language or infrastructure.

It must also be grounded in the constitution, aligned with national laws, and designed to respect the rights, responsibilities, and values of the society it serves.

This is beyond just technology.

It requires a supporting ecosystem: startups, universities, businesses, venture capital, infrastructure providers, policymakers, and national agencies, all aligned around a shared ambition.

I was grateful to discuss this at AI:Casablanca, alongside builders and leaders thinking seriously about the future of work in the AI era, and am incredibly hungry audience who made me confident in the bright future of Morocco.

The next chapter of AI should not only be global in capability.

It should be local in meaning, lawful by design, and sovereign by construction. Let’s build the future together!

AI sovereignty for Morocco needs a full ecosystem. A sovereign LLM like @SawalniBot is a small part of our journey.

Meet @OmarKamali , a self-taught developer from Morocco who's building @SawalniBot - an AI assistant for Moroccan Darija to prevent his language from being left behind in the AI revolution.

New blog post 👇

[Omar Kamali @OmarKamali]

Teaching an LLM a new language is so effortful but can be rewarding and high impact.

In my recent interview with @FeatherlessAI (thank you for having me!), I recount the story of training @SawalniBot, the challenges, and many learnings I wish I knew before.

Enjoy the read!
