Google says it is committed to collaborating with local universities and research centers, as well as working with policy makers on the potential uses of AI in Africa.

“We are excited to combine our research interests in AI and machine learning and our experience in Africa to push the boundaries of AI while solving challenges in areas such as healthcare, agriculture, and education,” says Google.

With great potentials to impact the world and more, AI is ready to represent to the world the development of new AI technologies. It makes sense if the world is well represented in the development of AI.
