@spearhead_af: ICYMI: Selling Intelligence: The Real Agenda Behind the AI Boom The aggressive push for Generative AI is a calculated move to turn "intelligence" into a product, something people must constantly pay for and depend on. When Sam Altman openly talks about selling intelligence like electricity, it tells you everything you need to know. Across Africa, this idea is being sold hard to governments, students, creatives, and workers as "the future," even in places still struggling with basic infrastructure. At the same time, there’s a clear double standard. Tech elites like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg limit their own children's exposure to the very technologies being pushed on everyone else. The Spearhead's Kangmwa Gofwen explains that this contradiction should raise serious questions. #AI #Africa #agenda #generativeAI

💯💯 And We need to create Our own systems. If We don't, we're at the mercy of those who do. Additionally, We need to preserve Our Ancestral wisdom and cultural heritage... Spirituality, languages, education systems, herbal and plant medicine art and literature etc

Tech companies want to own skills and technical knowledge by having us train AI to literally replace us in the job market. Stop using AI!!!

this would be true if there were no open source and open weights models available from sources that are not the west. it also does to adequately take into account how far behind we are and the urgency with which that gap must be closed as Africa's youth dominance starts to materialize. AI is all the world's digitized knowledge used to train a machine to be able to call on that knowledge to respond to enquiries and questions and do things rapidly. That by itself is scientific progress. How it is delivered and who owns the delivery channels is where Africa needs to be careful.

I've always said to myself inwardly, that Ai will destroy this world. Most people see innovation and advancement in technology, but it's destruction disguised as improvement of the daily lives of people and the world. Total 🐂 shit.
