He wasted no time in addressing the question: "With the dawn of AI at our doorstep and in our daily routine; can we as Africans afford to miss the fourth industrial revolution?" Watch how he takes the TEDxEuston audience on a roller coaster of thought in his 6-minute punchy talk, a first at TEDxEuston.

This video is underrated. African governments should wake up and graps this opportunity. We kno how the previous industrial revolutions panned out..
This guy was ahead 6years ago❤
Is he a tech prophet? It's 5 years now and it's happening. 😮
Access to information makes people appear super human. We have to educate ourselves, our children so that such we become part of innovation and not make us see technology as aliens.
what a brilliant presentation
WOW! 6 years Later... So relevant and most importantly, accurate.👍
Absolutely fantastic keynote. So relevant and most importantly, accurate. How many African Mark Zuckerberg’s are there?
Not that he needs to be copied, but look at his impact, and the impact of others like him. Can you imagine just 1 African with that type of global influence (with a ubiquitous product, not politics).
Again fantastic presentation.
Statistically speaking, not many "African Mark Zuckerbergs" are likely to exist.
You never can tell what the new wave would be for African smart minds. I'm so sure hands are on deck about ai innovations.
This guy was a prophet it's happening
This makes way more sense now with all the chatgpt and other explosive AI tools out there.
It’s already happening now, Currently I’m working on solutions that harness the power of AI to drive the development in my country (South Sudan),
A wake up call for us all.
I love this
Generalizing Africa. Every country is different with different cultures. If it work in Nigeria, if won't necessarily work in Rwanda.
Shut the f up, Pieter-Daniel ! I bet you're not even african !
Wakanda = fantasy SA= reality
we can make Wakanda reality
That's just a fantasy.Let's focus on improving, mastering,maintaining and sustaining what we already got.👍@@ibrahimahmat5806
The Problem with Africa is our pride and lack of the Spirit of Excellence and Sustained Excellence.
There is so much knowledge tools and resources the West has developed that Africa could leverage for both national and continental development but we are always stuck in the past ... bickering and fighting about how the West stole from us and enslaved our ancestors and bla bla bla bla...
and yet about 90% of Africa youth want to go to the West.
Everything the African youth dreams of today was developed by the West.
The entire African politics and religion are Influenced by the West...
It's like everybody is waiting on Africa so we could move onto the next Age.
The whole situation is Total Madness!!!!!
How I wish our governments take R&D seriously....Africa is blessed with bright minds but investing in that for the future is the problem. The AAI = Africa Artificial intelligence is a must thing to start if we don't want to be playing catch ups
Africans get stuck in!
Hehehehehe... getting high on crude
SO WHY ONLY GIRLS? AND NO SEARCH FOR THE MISSING GIRLS?
utter nonsense
You probably want to change your mind now...
@@Afuru1No. Still high octane dribble of little value. "Africa can play this game just as well as any other country". What's he smoking ?
YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS !!! NOO AI IN AFRICA !!!
so you just want to watch other continents become super ai powers.......come on it will be like going back to the days of slavery .we need to do this as africans
Tariro Doma the purpose of AI is too increase business production. Why ?? Because those in the West are lazy. You honestly think Africans can't increase business productions like our ancestors use to do when they had the entire continent working as one ?? What do you think will happen when AI start to get smart and realize they can work for themselves ?? Do you know Sofia ?? You know AI mission is too eradicate humans right ???
but we will not be able to compete with AI so our industries will be out competed and also don't forget that AI can also be used for military purposes so as africans we need our own ai to be able to defend ourselve.Check out elon musk's view on AI ..we need AI democracy and also ray kurzweil on how humans can manage and reduce the risk of AI going rogue .By the way l know Sofia the humanoid robot she or it is far from archiving human like intelligents
Tariro Doma we do not need to compete with AI. AI has already surpass it creators in the knowledge they have obtain. You can't put a control on AI if you are training it to learn as much information as possible. AI has already develop their own cryptocurrency and already is in communication with other AI developing their own language which is known as gibberish. There is no need for AI in Africa. We do not need AI to defend Africa. The west develop their military with a natural resource known as Coltan. If we shut that down they will be unable to develop any weaponry. Stop trying to make Africans look like weak people. We have won many wars in the past and can do it again. You must not know how great the African continent once was. Elon Musk view on AI is horrible. He tells people it's not good for humanity but he still uses it. AI is already collecting data on humans. You see what Jeff Bozos doing with Alexa. Africa needs to develop their own UX or UI to fight against AI. AI will bring harm to humanity and that is a fact. If AI was legalize 5G would be next.
@B 1 Shut Upppp
Intelligent Africa... complete oxymoron
what do you mean?
