To Leverage Technology Sustainably, it needs to be understood Holistically

@NBCDigitalNews When they are allowed to come for one, they will soon come for us all. There is no freedom for anyone unless everyone is free.

People who don’t actively use TikTok don’t get it. I learn so many recipes, plan dates, learn make-up hacks, have made travel it itineraries, keep up with current events and watched so many relatable stories on there. Its so much more than dances, it’s just the best app ever 😟

"What about the Data?"
A question that arose multiple times at the last @NamibiaIGF event.
So we decided to bring everyone back so we can talk about the Data.
I encourage anyone who wants to contribute to the discussion to join us. This is how you can contribute to policy

Today, Namibia is at the polls!
It has not blocked access to #socialmedia!
It has not blocked access to the internet!
It has kept digital communications on 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
A lesson to others to #KeepItOn!

Burberry burned $36,500,000 of clothes in one year.

Not because they couldn't sell them.

Because they didn't want YOU to have them.

The disturbing truth about luxury's dirtiest secret🧵

[#NamIGF @NamibiaIGF]

Inviting all to attend the 5th #NamIGF taking place tomorrow 2nd October 2024 under the theme: Emerging Technologies in the Age of A.I (The Namibian Context).

Join us tomorrow for a fully packed event, engaging on key internet related issues in Namibia & beyond. @MICTNamibia

[V @VRittmann]

#NamIGF is the Secretariat to the Minstry on internet governance. The deliberations tomorrow will provide valuable input to a key development area.
Looking forward to moderating the panel on how #AI & #EmergingTechnologies can provide socio-economic benefits to all Namibians.

you’re raised to think colonalism is a thing of the past and then you sit here and realize…. none of it has ever stopped

Israel has murdered more innocent people in Lebanon in the past few days than Hamas did on October 7th. The western media's hypocrisy regarding this and the entire war will be studied in a generation.

@namibiansun This feels like bribery. Elect us and we will donate. But you can also just donate. If you had it, why haven't you?

@lamechthinkbig @EmmaTheofelus @elonmusk If Starlink doesn't want to adhere to Namibian regulations than they can miss us with their thinly disguised surveillance project. We don't need the strings that come attached.

[V @VRittmann]

@DrNangoloMbumba @elonmusk @SpaceX We don't need the strings that come with Elon's assistance. If he wants to have Starlink in Namibia than abide by the Namibian rule of law. Mxxxm!

[V @VRittmann]

A career highlight to have been at this important #UNGA79 event. The talk revolved mainly around access to AI and capacity development . My only concern is that Data was missing from these discussions.

Spanish actor and Oscar winner, Javier Bardem, speaks out for Gaza at the San Sebastián Film Festival, calling out the Israeli occupation for committing war crimes. 🇵🇸

Belgian MEP Marc Botenga asks European leaders how they can still say good night to their children while enabling Israel to commit a genocide against children in Gaza.

Ireland’s MEP, Aodhán Ó Ríordáin:

“I wanted my first words spoken in the European Parliament to be: SANCTION ISRAEL NOW!”

It was a real pleasure to see so many young people at this event. There is an appetite to understand this new technology and that bodes well for us.
A.I is indeed a great opportunity for economic development but must be understood holistically to be leveraged sustainably.
