AI Tools For African Development & News

I am reaching out to see if anyone knows of an AI African development/news synthesizer. An AI product that aggregates news, latest developments, historical facts, government actions, policy dialogues, investments, innovations, and geopolitical matters across all reportable sectors in every African country. Included in this should be thought-leaders in podcasts, academia, and civil society.

In one tool I want to reach and vigilantly monitor developments in the entire continent in an all-encompassing manner from the past to present, information consolidated and tightly coordinated, to see everything happening at the same time like an eagle looking at the whole continent from space.

If you know of any existing tools or any such tools in development, please share so I can experiment.

Based on the above description, it is important that African governments enact policies and take actions that rigorously monitor and authenticate the AI data inputs (sources AI is using for its information), but also the outputs (where the gathered information from people is being collected and what the AI company is doing with it). AI should not become a Trojan Horse in the African continent, so it is the task of leadership to ensure the inputs and outputs are under scrutiny through firm policy implementation and monitoring. The best case scenario is Africans building AI technologies that can compete with foreign ones, so they personally control the inputs and outputs.

From a business standpoint, AI companies will be a great investment. From a legal perspective, AI law and regulation will be in high demand and a lucrative career. From a human perspective, AI should support human value systems and be an efficient assistant for productive activities but not dictate or distort them. The AI tsunami has already started and will affect everything, so the focus at this point is how to properly harness it to serve good goals and positive activities that bring value to society.

So, if you know of any such tools mentioned above, please share.
