'We Can Be Creators of Our Own Solutions' — Ethiopian Developer on Building Local Solutions for Local Challenges
Kidus Yared, co-founder of Hasab AI—a platform for low-resource and African languages— believes Africa’s AI future must be built by Africans, for Africans.
In an interview with Sputnik Africa, Kidus shares how collaboration, local innovation, and breaking language barriers are key to Ethiopia’s tech progress.
"There's an old African proverb, right? It says, if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."
From Kigali to Nairobi, Hasab AI is proving that African startups can lead the way in AI-driven solutions for agriculture, healthcare, and communication.
But the journey isn't without challenges:
"Language models, AI solutions are very, very resource intensive."
