African Artificial Intelligence...

Mark Nasila

Artificial intelligence (AI) is upending life, work, and play as we know it, and it's only just getting started. The rise of AI is a milestone on par with the discovery of fire, the invention of the wheel, and the creation of the internet. In short, AI is going to change everything. For some, that's an exciting prospect. For others, it's terrifying. However you feel about AI, there's no escaping it, whether you're in a global metropolis or a farmer in rural KwaZulu-Natal.
Dr Mark Nasila has been watching AI's ascent for over a decade, studying its effects on everything from agriculture and aviation to healthcare, education, entertainment, crime prevention, energy management, policy creation, finance, and anything in between, and applying them to his role at one of South Africa's most successful financial institutions, First National Bank, a division of FirstRand Group.
African Artificial Intelligence is a comprehensive and fascinating journey, tracing the rise of AI and its evolution into the emerging technology underpinning all others – from connected devices and smart chatbots to the metaverse. Mark combines unexpected use cases and tales of cutting-edge innovation with a unique and potent argument: harnessing AI to solve Africa's problems requires embracing it from an African perspective.
African nations can't afford to simply import AI solutions from afar. Instead, Mark contends, they need to rework, remix, and refine AI so it's able to meet uniquely African challenges in uniquely African ways, and to take advantage of the once-in-a-generation opportunity AI represents for every industry, sector, and person, everywhere.

The Future of Urban Mobility -...

Lyric Vale

The concept of smart cities has emerged as a transformative force in urban development, redefining the way people live, work, and move within urban spaces. At its core, a smart city integrates advanced technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data, to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of urban infrastructure. By leveraging these technologies, cities can address the growing challenges of population density, resource management, and environmental sustainability.
One of the key components of smart cities is their ability to connect and optimize various urban systems. Transportation networks, for instance, are becoming more interconnected and intelligent. Sensors embedded in roads, traffic signals, and public transit vehicles gather real-time data that helps manage congestion, optimize routes, and improve safety. In cities like Singapore, smart traffic management systems have already reduced travel times and minimized emissions, showcasing the potential of technology-driven solutions.
Smart cities also prioritize sustainability by incorporating green initiatives and resource-efficient systems. Renewable energy sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines, are increasingly integrated into urban grids, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Water management systems, equipped with IoT sensors, monitor usage and detect leaks to prevent waste. These efforts are particularly important as cities strive to achieve climate targets and reduce their ecological footprints.
