Google has announced that it will open an artificial intelligence (AI) research center in Africa, its first on the continent. The Silicon Valley giant said that the new research hub will open in Accra, Ghana, later this year. "We're committed to collaborating with local universities and research centers, as well as working with policy makers on the potential uses of AI in Africa," Google's blog post said. Accra, located in the west of Africa, joins cities including Paris, New York and Tokyo, as well as Google's Mountain View headquarters, in hosting an AI research center.

AI will change the world. Already done. The civilizations that are based on the concept of cognitive evolution will survive.
