The way China's entry into the WTO flooded the world with cheap goods, Google and Facebook are killing legacy media, and the English Premier League going global killed interest in local leagues, is what AI will do to Africa. It will destroy the tiny white-collar job market.
My point: There are complex forces that determine the success or failure of a tech product, irrespective of the brilliance of its creators. And unlike previous technology that was an enabler, AI is a replacement for most white-collar jobs. AI is a great THREAT to Africa.

Kevin Systrom and Michel Krieger founded Instagram in 2010. They sold it to Facebook for $1 billion in 2012. In 2023, Krieger and Systrom launched Artifact, a news app. It flopped and was shut down a year later. Same brilliant men but one app succeeds, the other fails. Why?
People with only an elementary knowledge of AI are falling over themselves to heap praise on the Rwandan ICT minister, who at that conference displayed an eloquent but equally elementary grasp of AI.
For those active on LinkedIn, how different is the experience from Twitter? I have a LinkedIn account I never bother with because I suspect the civil service, corporate, and private practice types on it are as emotionally passive and artistically clueless as they are on X.
The Deputy Lord Mayor of Kampala, Doreen Nyanjura, stole this book from my home a few years ago. On Saturday I stole it back. Good book. The only problem is that the analysis and English, even by Cambridge University standards, make it far too complex for most people to grasp.

This video from 2020, of Chinese kindergarten kids bouncing balls around in perfect unison, is still among the best content I've ever seen on social media. It's a glimpse into what must be changed in Africa.

And these Chinese, trained from early on to develop a sense of precision and high mental concentration, will your children raised in our friendly, laissez-faire way, ever hope to compete with these?

How come deafening silence has followed this post? Has the little Chinese girl speaking about black holes and space-time confirmed our fears that we're not as intelligent as we seem and even if we send our children to the best schools, they'll still turn out average, like us?

I recorded this off China's CGTN TV evening show "Cultural Express" in 2013. This five year-old girl explains what the universe's black holes are. Is this a case of super-high IQ or an abnormally photographic mind? She's now 16. I wonder what she's like now.
Print newspapers - This media format, responsible for reporting so much valuable world news since the 1800s, is dying out. Yet news consumption has never been higher. Clearly, the problem is both the format and focus. Can newspapers be re-formatted? I have the answers. ENDS

I'm no genius but I usually know which new tech products will fail. I predicted in 2021 that Facebook's metaverse concept would flop. Last June after the launch, I said Apple's Vision Pro headset would flop too. Now Apple is cutting production due to weak demand. See tweet...

@africatechie @TimKalyegira OMG! Don't even try that lie. Maybe she is an expert by Rwanda standards
@TimKalyegira @jamesonen Is someone misusing the the word "genius"
@TimKalyegira Are You creating an archive for people in 25th Century to look. Because Your captions are clearly giving that
I've been visiting Australia, and recorded this interview about Eritrea while here with the SBS local ratio station. sbs.com.au/language/tigri…
On 15 May, 3pm EAT, @UgandaStudies will host Patrick Otim @BatesCollege on the occasion of his remarkable new book, which rethinks Uganda's intellectual history. Details are below. We hope to see you there! @OhioUnivPress @ASANewsOnline
While you instead fund a corrupt politically connected and family/ethnocentric kleptocrats?
The main reason there is no growth in Africa is that the growth factors are neither funded nor understood; those who want to help Africa should fund our transport systems, electricity, raw material processing, and import substitution. Why are we being funded to import and hold…
Sevo is definitely a genius by baddugavu standards.
@TimKalyegira @jamesonen I like the Nyash bit. Any we can unleash before we return to Stockholm?
@TimKalyegira I think there’s some luck also in these things
@dennisssengendo @TimKalyegira @TheMutaD The way people are forcing her un to us,u would imagine she's the innovator.
@JacobNabende @TimKalyegira @jamesonen Fatboy is day dreaming. Just like Onen did(choose his topical discussion), Tim has helped him have a picture of what HIS GENIUS was/is like it has always said of my contemporary(Obote) while at Mwiri.
@SolomonSerwanjj @AfricanIIJ Personally I find the show very informative! The art of questioning you're using is way beyond, my key episodes include one with @TimKalyegira, @USAmbUganda pop, @nickopiyo among others. Thank you for your great service sir.
@TimKalyegira @jamesonen Tim, please forgive them for they do not know what they do. “But he was interested in learning like other students, like the [Eriya] Kategayas. He was an ordinary student. He was not actually one of the bright students, but he was trying to learn.” - Mzee Boniface Byanyima
Was Le Roi du Zaïre any intelligent let alone “genius”. When you’ve lived in most regions of this country, you’ll understand the power of misinformation, propagation of fear 😧 and the absolute use of propaganda to keep the populous in check.
No, @TimKalyegira. You misunderstand Stockholm syndrome. That you think a man who has managed to stay in power for nearly 40 years has nothing between the ears is strange. Trying to beat an opponent by being completely dismissive of them is the fastest way to lose to them.
@TimKalyegira @jamesonen @TonyNatif I have come to the conclusion that this Stockholm Syndrome is now endemic in different classes of Ugandans. I have interacted with a senior professional (who will remain nameless). He has advanced symptoms of it in every word and actions to à patronising level.
The tricky part about next week’s census, if you interview the husband and wife together and ask how many children do you have. How sure are you that you will get the truth?
@TimKalyegira Partly agree with Tim here, but commend her for having interest in it. What she doesn't perceive yet is that Ai is an entire world , or economy if you are to box it, not even fully understood by the makers of it.
@TonyNatif @reezi02 @dral1234 @TimKalyegira @jamesonen He's only goal was to rule and uplift his family members, I believe anyone can do that in 40 years
