Did you know that https://t.co/7AXXCSuwrr now does document translation? Upload PDFs etc, get the whole thing translated. Here is a demo from our star boy @davidnintang - an Amanfo and a 2020 Robofest World Champion 🤩🤩🤩 btw 😀
Chale the Khaya AI team inspires me ☺️
Most mathematicians choose one problem and spend a career solving it. Stephen Moore(@moorekwesi) looked at Africa's most urgent problems and decided all of them were math problems.
He was not wrong.
Born in Saltpond, Ghana. BSc Mathematics with distinction from KNUST. Then two master's degrees in Europe, one from Kaiserslautern, one from Johannes Kepler University Linz, where he stayed to complete his PhD in Computational Mathematics. He was being shaped by the finest applied mathematics institutions on the continent, and then choosing to come back.
That choice is the whole story.
Because Stephen did not return to teach and wait. He returned to build infrastructure that Ghana did not yet know it needed.
He joined @GhanaNLP and became Director of Programs. What started as a quiet research initiative became the engine behind @KhayaAI, Africa's first AI translation tool for Ghanaian languages. His team published what is now the largest Ghana language dataset ever released online: 41,513 parallel sentence pairs across Twi, Fante, Ewe, Ga, and Kusaal. Not proprietary. Public. So every researcher, every developer, every language technology builder in the world could access it freely.
He was not building a product. He was building a floor for everyone else to build on.
Then came the grants. Google Research, twice. Over USD 95,000 to advance multilingual and multimodal work for global health. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, for AfriMed-QA, a pan-African medical question-answering benchmark. USD 100,000. The British Council. A collaboration with University College London worth GBP 150,000 for AI solutions to humanitarian challenges.
The world kept arriving at his door. He kept answering and routing everything back to Cape Coast.
His research now spans computational mathematics, mathematical epidemiology, machine learning, and African language AI. Forty-plus published papers. Collaborations with INRIA in France, University of L'Aquila in Italy, where he is a Visiting Professor.
The National University of Singapore invited him to a joint ASEAN-Africa workshop on computational mathematics. He was one of ten Africans in the room.
He is also the person who set up a formal exchange program so that mathematics graduate students from the University of Cape Coast can spend a semester in L'Aquila studying at the highest level. Six students have gone so far. More are going.
He teaches, supervises, publishes, builds, and then builds the pathway so others can follow.
At the 2025 Global AI Summit on Africa in Kigali, Stephen stood at Booth 18 and demonstrated Khaya AI to the world. The tool that started in a research group at a Ghanaian university was now being shown on a continental stage.
@moorekwesi is proof that the most powerful thing a mathematician can do is refuse to separate the theoretical from the practical, and refuse to separate their success from their community.

The equations were never just on paper. They were always about the people.
I heard a production by KaySo and told Montel, ‘Once I lock in with this guy, it’s over.’
In 2015, Sedudzi, who I first met through a Google Trader ad back in 2009 stopped by XLC on his way to meet KaySo. I decided to tag along.
We ended up at the studio KaySo was working at the time. That day, I rapped back to back to back for everyone in the studio. KaySo and I made Yenkɔ in our very first session.
I started going there regularly to make music with KaySo.

“Woezor!!!”
Was that enough for you to tell whether the polls got it right or wrong?
The Ghana Data Science Summit 2026 is heading to the Volta Region of Ghana!
Stay locked on our social media channels because this year’s experience will be bigger, bolder, and better.
Akpe!!
The @GhanaNLP documentary about @KhayaAI - an honest look at the journey, motivation & challenges drops soon.
Here is an excerpt featuring my co-founder @moorekwesi & myself speaking on some of the issues.

This is how Senegal uses its open spaces. Exercise. Sports. I saw this from Dakar to Mbour. On Wednesday, the beaches of Sally to Mbour are full of football, running and wrestling activities. Perhaps, something other African countries can learn from.
The Ghana Center for the International Institute of Online Education (IIOE) will be launched at the plush hotel on UCC campus. You're cordially invited. @VoiceOfUCC@UCCGH_Official
Stephen Kofi Apemah Baah, Opoku Ware School NSMQ star contests again in this year’s NSMQ for the third time in a row🌟
In 2023, he reached the Finals
In 2024, he reached the quarter-finals.
He is accompanied by John Kusi who is also contesting for the second time🌟
For many African communities, the digital revolution often sidelines their native tongues. But that’s where Khaya AI steps in a groundbreaking solution developed to make African languages digitally relevant and accessible.
#KhayaAI#GhanaNLP
Hon. @samgeorgegh met with @GhanaNLP to discuss the future of AI development. By December de3, everywhere will be Khaya AI p33. The next update will cover more than 200million African speakers with tools in their own languages.
These are some thoughts provoking useful prompts I've been using.
Deep Dive into a Topic:
Prompt:
"Act as an expert on [subject], explain the most important concepts, and provide real-world examples to illustrate each. Then, give me a step-by-step guide to master this topic in the next 30 days."
Personalized learning plan.
Prompt:
"Help me design a personalized learning plan for mastering [subject]. Break it down into daily learning tasks, recommended resources, and practical exercises I can do to build my skills."
Critical Thinking Challenge:
Prompt:
"Challenge me with a series of thought-provoking questions on [subject]. After each question, provide feedback on my answer and suggest how I can improve my critical thinking on this topic."
Roleplay as a Mentor:
Prompt:
"Assume the role of a mentor in [field]. Offer advice, insights, and actionable tips to someone starting in this domain, including common pitfalls and how to overcome them."
Progressive Complexity in Explanation
Prompt:
"Provide a step-by-step explanation of [topic], beginning with foundational concepts suitable for a novice. Gradually build complexity by introducing intermediate and advanced aspects, incorporating real-world examples and applications to ensure comprehensive understanding."
Analogies and Relatable Comparisons
Prompt:
"Use well-constructed analogies and comparisons to clarify [topic]. Relate its principles to everyday experiences, widely known phenomena, or cross-disciplinary examples to make the concepts more tangible and memorable."
Practical Problem-Solving Applications
Prompt:
"Demonstrate how the principles of [topic] can be applied to address real-world challenges. Provide detailed, step-by-step case studies or scenarios that illustrate its practical utility and effectiveness."
Critical Thinking Through Inquiry
Prompt:
"Generate a list of thought-provoking, open-ended questions about [topic] that stimulate deeper critical thinking and exploration. Focus on questions that challenge assumptions, reveal nuances, and encourage further inquiry into the subject."
I hope this helps you 🫵
