Ai Kenya in partnership with Majadiliano platform organized a country-wide tour in Kenya focussed on artificial intelligence for Africa. The tour covered Kisumu, Muhoroni, Kakamega, Siaya, Nairobi and Mombasa.
Babusi Nyoni, a 31 year old Zimbabwean and a self-taught emerging technology pundit shared how he began his journey leaving Zimbabwe as an economic refugee, entering South Africa, where he lived for 5 years before moving to the Netherlands.
In 2016 he created what Forbes magazine described as "the world’s first Artificial intelligent football commentator" for the UEFA Champions League final. In the same year, he created a prototype for the prediction of human displacement in Africa using artificial intelligence & thereafter worked with UNHCR to actualize a pilot project in the same field.
He founded the Ulwazi Accelerator in 2018 to equip young Zimbabweans with the skills needed to contribute to the global digital economy. In 2019 he created an app for the early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease & presented his findings at Oxford University on the Skoll Foundation stage. Babusi has a strong passion for fresh new ideas that will change the lives of those around him and is a firm believer that AI is shaping the technological zeitgeist worldwide.
The Majadiliano tour was a successful venture gracing over 2500 attendees across 6 locations.
