Pelonomi Moiloa is a South African entrepreneur and founder of Lelapa AI which is an AI startup that aims to help Africa lure back its AI talent. In this episode, Scott and Pelonomi discuss how AI can be used for both good and bad purposes and how we can protect it from being used for evil. Lelapa aims to do this by working on problems African AI researchers care about, and by allowing them to work closer to the people and places important to them.
