“I haven’t heard about any AI-forward projects [in the Caribbean]” – that’s a quote from a recent episode of This Week In Caribbean Tech. Admittedly, I first saw the episode it was via this tweet: The long tail of my disagreement started when I saw the tweet and it continued to percolate for a good […]
Doing new things can be hard. Still try. That’s it, that’s the whole post.
It’s early days yet, but the sooner we face the music, the more ready we’ll be to adapt. I was listening to “Precious Things” from a recent Lupe Fiasco album.
