The point, is to have a plan. Africa needs to have a plan. What are we doing and where are we going! We need to answer these for ourselves. Then we can move to the future African AI we want!!! #DLI2024

Help strengthen AI in Africa by becoming a mentor in the Deep Learning Indaba mentorship programme. The short term/transactional nature makes the time commitment small, and you can pause or opt out at any time.

Wow congratulations to Amathambo AI! I am blown away by the power of their idea and dedication to making it a reality. As @tamati_biskit said in her talk at @DeepIndaba ‘it’s research that makes the future possible, and industry that manufactures it’. This team is doing both!

[Simphiwe Zitha @SimphiweNhlanh5]
