South Africa Set to Miss Out on Trillion-Dollar AI Boom

Moneyweb

The impending AI revolution is expected to drive trillions of dollars in investment and necessitate substantial new power generation. Unfortunately, South Africa is poised to play a minimal role in this technological race, potentially missing out on significant economic opportunities. As the world shifts towards artificial intelligence and machine learning, SA's limited infrastructure and resources may hinder its ability to compete. With the global tech industry expected to experience unprecedented growth, South Africa's lack of investment in AI and renewable energy may prove to be a major setback. Key areas like data science and digital transformation will be crucial in this new era.
