Africa is a strange continent. Wicknell Chivayo, a Zimbabwean dollar billionaire, dies in a helicopter crash, and more than a day later not a single company has come forward to mourn its founder.🤔

🚨Update: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang declares data centers are now called “superintelligence factories!”
36
The term “artificial intelligence” entered the technical world in 1955, when John McCarthy used it in the Dartmouth summer-research proposal (the workshop itself followed in 1956) to mark off a new field from earlier work on automata and “thinking machines.” 70 years later, a push to swap AI for SI—“super intelligence”—treats the original adjective as a branding problem rather than a description of something humans built. I think the impulse is understandable: “artificial” can sound cheap or unreal. But the rename collides with a term researchers have used for decades to mean a still-hypothetical intellect that would outperform humans across almost every domain. Relabeling today’s systems does not change what they can do, and it muddies a useful distinction. Names shape how people talk about a technology; they do not rewrite its history or its limits. The Dartmouth coinage stuck because it named an ambition. A political rebrand will stick only if it names the thing we actually have.

Tukaze buti ndugu zangu Watanzania.
Hii ndiyo mindset ambayo Mwenyekiti wetu ametufundisha tangu mwanzo — hakuna kulegeza, hakuna kuchoka, ni mapambano mapambano tu 💪🏾🔥. Tumeona mateso, tumeona dhabihu, lakini bado tuko pamoja.
Ikiwa kila mmoja wetu atakaza buti kidogo zaidi leo, kesho na kila siku, hatutashindwa. Umoja wetu ni nguvu yetu, haki yetu haitapotea.
Tupambane zaidi. Tutashinda. Tanzania itakuwa huru.
#TukazeButi #Chadema #HakiKwaWote #FreeTundulisu #Katibampyanisasa
