Ownership is not a feeling. It's a decision.

Most people treat their standards as a response to their environment performing when conditions are good, pulling back when they're not.

I've built my entire career on the opposite principle. https://t.co/YUIkXbvZAz

Following the FEC approval of our National AI Trust to ensure long-term leadership for Artificial Intelligence in Nigeria, we held a co-creation workshop in London on Wednesday and Thursday, bringing together leading researchers, academics, policymakers, industry experts, philanthropies, and public interest organisations as we commenced the process of establishing this first-of-its-kind AI Trust.

As Artificial Intelligence becomes an increasingly important driver of economic competitiveness, it is critical that we build not only the technology foundations, but also the institutions that can provide sustainable stewardship. The National AI Trust is envisioned as a body of trustees that will help ensure that AI development and deployment delivers broad-based economic and social value for all Nigerians.

Convening the workshop in London allowed us to tap into world-class expertise and diverse perspectives, helping to strengthen our thinking and shape the future direction of the National AI Trust.

As part of the visit, I enjoyed being hosted by my alma mater, @WarwickBSchool, for a keynote conversation on Global Perspectives: AI, Institutions, and National Competitiveness, hosted by Professor Christian Stadler. The discussion provided an opportunity to share Nigeria’s approach to building the talent, infrastructure, digital public infrastructure, and institutional capacity required to compete and thrive in an AI-driven world.

My sincere appreciation to the @macfound, @Cc_HUB, and the @WarwickBSchool, for organizing the workshop, and all participants and partners whose contributions continue to strengthen Nigeria’s AI journey.

That Google Drive link of 200+ novels in the Heinemann African Writers Series is piracy on a grand scale. Truly surreal to see someone so brazenly offer to share it, & for so many to express interest in getting the link. Gross violation of IP by 'supporters' of African writing.
