Reclaiming the AI Narrative: An African Perspective

In episode 3, I engage in an enlightening discussion with Alex Tsado, a fervent advocate for a uniquely African approach to Artificial Intelligence (AI), following our meet at Mozilla Fest in Kenya, September 2023.

We delve into the reasons behind Africa's lag in AI advancement, and the Western-centric narrative currently driving the AI discourse. We explore actionable steps to reclaim control over Africa's AI narrative, aiming to mitigate the influence of Western biases and control in shaping the continent's AI future. Through a visually enriched dialogue, featuring key insights from various stakeholders, they urge a collective effort to steer the African AI narrative towards a more autonomous and culturally resonant direction.
