This piece echoes my sentiments on African AI development and governance.
"The continent’s AI research community needs to develop a coherent vision for AI regulation. Only then can Africa’s collective voice be better represented in international AI-governance forums."

Better data sets won’t solve the problem — we need AI for Africa to be developed in Africa
Language models developed by big technology companies consistently underperform in African languages. It’s time to focus on local solutions.
