Life has its ups and downs, and sometimes the weight we carry feels heavier than we can handle. Remember, it’s okay not to be okay. Struggles don’t make you weak — they make you human. 🌿 Let’s break the silence, support one another. #MentalHealth4Men #itsokaynottobeokay

Sorry, @pazunre. Frontier AI companies' unauthorized use of copyrighted African works has received far less attention than similar cases in the West. I wrote an extensive piece for @openDemocracy describing the challenge. opendemocracy.net/en/how-afr…
