@karen_nadasen @StellenboschUSB AI technologies are projected to result in a shift from lower to higher skilled job opportunities. The threat is that it will initially lead to job losses in underdeveloped countries where higher education is lacking for the majority of the population.

Is democracy the answer for African countries? People still vote along loyal traditional lines, regardless of how bad the ruling party govern the country. It will take time. #MBAPAF #Africarising #Group2 @StellenboschUSB

In 25 years of democracy, South-Africa's development model has changed with every new president. There's a lack of a coherent long term plan for the country. #MBAPAF #Africarising #Group2 @StellenboschUSB
