Show Notes

Reflecting on the dangers of technological monopolization, many tech entrepreneurs warn that without action, technology may become "yet another tool for the privileged few to stay privileged." With a career that includes experience at Google and Meta, Terrence Taylor, the visionary Founder of the African Institute of Future Technologies (AIFT), brings a unique perspective on how advanced technologies like AI and robotics can bridge the digital divide. Join us as we explore his journey from Sierra Leone to Johannesburg, his efforts to empower one billion Africans through education, and his vision for a future where technology serves as a force for equity and opportunity across the continent.

Join us as we get rebelliously curious.
