I’m proud of this young man and I love the way he’s thinking. Remove the degree limitations because AI is so new that everyone is learning it on the go. I often wonder why Jamaica hasn’t been doing this. We have some very talented, tech savvy young people in Jamaica. Estonia has done it and India has done it. We’re so close to the U.S., why aren’t we doing it? It’s madness that we’re not doing it. It’s such an amazing opportunity and it’s a great way to take Jamaicans out of poverty. We could raise our GDP exponentially in the next 5-10 years and pull many out of poverty. Jamaica can become a tech hub and create another industry other than tourism.
I'm Jamaican, one of my sons graduated from imperial college, London with a degree in computer science, he's been working for Google for some time now and actually in teams who develop these computer intelligence, the last one is highly educated in computer software,he dropped out of university but did an apprenticeship with Facebook, from a child he was addicted to computers and just naturally knows how to think above the computer so his job is now going to businesses solving issues staff has with using their computer, the eldest one works as an investment banker, and they are all traveling to Jamaica shortly
This is the future of Jamaica... Happy to see young Jamaicans getting in at an early stage. I know someone who will be interested in this, He is an animator at heart and this is right up his alley.
@rayonwilliams3380 I guess we will have to advocate for those groups who are already job ready and have the attitudes to make these companies successful. It seems to be the same in every sector...focus is youth, who most times have little to no runtime.
We have struggled with getting Jamaican and overall Caribbean businesses owners interesting in the value of data and using this information to run their business.
I saw a documentary about training institite that was established in one of the country side somewhere around the 1970s. Students were trained on all areas and the documentary said they couldn't get enough students or teachers so they allowed persons from other countries
When I go back to Jamaica I don’t want to see ANY AI. Unnatural. If they must mix that position, I hope they use it to degrade other nations and not Jamaica. Some progress, whist inevitable, is…… antiman

Oh. Thanks for the information.
🙄
This is incredible to see. I’m currently looking for a sales vp or directorship role in Jamaica. Now seems like the perfect time to move back home.

Most successful start ups most recent, are stsrted by people 45 years old snd older.
Congratulations Crimson Tide.
Also, it is not just about young people, middle aged people can also learn these skills. People in 40s and 50s can contribute 10 to 20 yrs of work...
The work ethic among the age groups you mentioned is exemplary. I agree. This should be extended beyond the target age groups.

This is awesome news!! 😃👏🏾👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
Thorp, this guest really blew me away, very far!!: But then this is the capability of Jamaican, so I should not be surprised.

Leave the University mindset...these are all short-term trainings, break it up in modules...remove the barriers to entry...eg University degree

Currently learning everything AI from TH-cam University.
The BPOs need to consult with the guy's company. I've been concerned about AI's impact on that industry for quite a while.
We need more women in tech as well. Don’t forget about them!!
Let’s support the system that is set on making us obsolete. The best thing for Jumaykah.
Chinese universities are very affordable and advanced in AI learning
Why you want AI when you have the real thing available? Aint nutten like the real thing.
