Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31260, member: 636"] Africa wants to jump into the tech world with both feet. Big names from all over Africa met in Rwanda to talk about computer brains. They came to the first big AI meeting for Africa, which started Thursday in Kigali. These leaders want better web links for everyone and fair chances to use AI across the land. They hope smart machines can help solve big problems. Rwanda's top man Paul Kagame thinks Africa has great ideas waiting to bloom. He said AI can make these ideas grow faster. He asked African lands to act fast and grab the good stuff AI brings. Kagame told the crowd they should build strong web links first. He wants people to team up and push AI to help more regular folks. The Rwanda boss warned that Africa might fall behind if it stands still. The man in charge of Togo, Faure Gnassingbe, shared his fears at the meeting. He said we must make sure AI helps all Africans. The tech could end up only helping city people who went to school. This would leave out many workers and young people in farm areas who can't reach new tech. Gnassingbe thinks Africa should pick key areas like health care, schools, and farms where AI can do the most good. Paula Ingabire runs Tech for Rwanda. She talked about finding the right mix of new ideas and rules. She said both must live side by side. Rwanda already has rules for using AI fairly. These rules try to stop AI from picking up bad habits from old data. The big meeting runs through Friday, with the goal of making Africa stronger in the AI race. More than a hundred African AI companies showed up at the event. Money talks happened to help these firms grow. Brain workers also met to share what they had learned. Over a thousand people from more than ninety lands joined the fun. They all came to help Africa find its place in the world of smart machines. The meeting focused on how AI can create jobs for Africa's many young workers. [/QUOTE]
