N-ATLas Nigeria’s 1st open-source multilingual LLM (Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Nigerian English) is more than tech. It’s cultural, linguistic & sovereign progress.

Kudos to @Awarri, the Ministry & partners for this milestone. Africa won’t just speak AI, AI will speak Africa.

Africa speaks in thousands of dialects.
Your AI should too.
AfroSLM is our commitment to building models that reflect the continent’s true linguistic diversity not just the top 10.
Explore how to build smarter apps with AfroSLM.

Africa’s languages aren’t just rich in sound they’re marvels of complexity.

Xitsonga has 18 noun classes that shift meaning + grammar. Zulu, Luganda, Shona share this depth, far beyond French.

For AI, this isn’t a barrier it’s a challenge we’ve taken on: building models that truly understand us.

EqualyzAI @equalyzai.bsky.social · Sep 12

EqualyzAI is pushing for a future where every African language can be used fluently across platforms, apps, and AI tools.

How many more languages do you think should be next? 👇🏽

This insight from Fei-Fei Li reminds us: the future of work isn’t man vs machine, but man with machine.

At @equalyz_ai, we’re ensuring Africans don’t just use AI but use AI that understands our voices, preserves our languages & reflects our contexts.

That’s the future we’re building.”

Model Collapse is real and it’s hitting underrepresented languages hardest. As LLMs learn from AI-made data, quality drops, risking African languages in tech.
EqualyzAI builds first-source, human-collected datasets to fight this. Build clean, before bias sticks.

The word zombie didn’t start in movies or comic books, it began in Africa. Rooted in the Kikongo word nzumbi, meaning “spirit of the dead,” the word travelled across the Atlantic and evolved through Haitian folklore before landing in modern pop culture. Today it's one of the most recognized words

Africa is home to over 2,000 languages but can you spot the fake one?

Today’s #EqualyzTrivia is a fun way to test your linguistic awareness.
Only one of these isn’t a real African language do you know which?
Will be dropping the correct answer by 6pm
Anticipate!

Hello Equaly-zers,
This is bigger than tech. This is purpose. This is power.
From farmlands to firewalls, EqualyzAI is proving that AI can be African built on dignity, spoken in every dialect, and powered by people.
This isn’t just innovation it’s a revolution.

What if AI could think, act, and speak like your community health worker?

That's the vision behind AgenticAI AI systems that are goal-oriented, culturally aware, and language-capable

OpenAI just won gold at the Math Olympiad. Genius-level AI, no hints needed.

But if AI can solve elite math, why’s it still clueless about African languages + cultures?

At EqualyzAI, we’re building models for Africa, with Africa. Because intelligence must be inclusive.

Recently, Meta’s auto-translation turned a political speech in Kannada a language spoken by over 40 million people into an offensive and misleading message.
This wasn’t just a glitch. It was a glaring reminder of how global AI still struggles to understand local meaning.

EqualyzAI @equalyzai.bsky.social · Jul 22

These words may look or sound different, but they reflect a shared cultural soul.

In a world where most AI systems are built in for the West, we’re creating models that are trained on our data, speak our dialects, and honor our heritage.

With no costly licenses or cloud dependence, teams can now build multilingual chatbots, local‑dialect speech interfaces, and culturally-sensitive voice assistants that run offline on basic hardware.

For clients and sponsors, this means faster time-to-market and lower operational cost

EqualyzAI @equalyzai.bsky.social · Jul 21

At EqualyzAI, we’re watching the rise of open‑source language models like Mistral 7B and Mixtral. These lightweight yet powerful tools are leveling the playing field, making AI ecosystem-building accessible to developers and organizations across Africa.

Wisdom never dies it just switches outfits
African proverbs are the original AI prompts: rich, layered, and deeply rooted.
EqualyzAI is building models that understand both the voice of the ancestors and the rhythm of now.
