By Gugu Lourie
The Southern Africa Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (SATNAC) returns to the African stage, with a deep dive into the transformative power of AI. Hosted by Telkom, SATNAC 2024 will take place from 6 – 9 October in the heart of the Kruger National Park at the Skukuza Rest Camp.
This year’s theme, “The AI-Driven Hyperconnected Future: Co-creating shared value,” promises insightful discussions and groundbreaking research presentations.
South Africa is rapidly emerging as a global leader in AI adoption, defying outdated technological stereotypes. Recent data reveals that over 60% of South African workers regularly use generative AI tools, surpassing rates in many Western nations.
This eagerness to embrace AI is further reflected in the workforce’s strong desire for AI training, with nearly 85% expressing interest.
This proactive approach to AI adoption positions South Africa for significant economic growth. The AI market in South Africa is projected to reach R6.9 billion by 2025, fuelled by increasing investment and adoption across various industries.
