DAR: Mkazi wa Goba Matosa, Uzaramoni kupitia Jukwaa la Habari na Hoja ndani ya JamiiForums.com amelalamikia kero ya kuzingirwa na Maji kutokana na udogo wa Kalavati kwa takriban Miaka Miwili

Amedai wamelalamika mara kwa mara hadi kufikia hatua ya kuandika barua kwa Wakala wa Barabara za Vijijini na Mijini (#TARURA) lakini kila wanapofanya hivyo anadai kuna Maafisa wanaenda kupiga picha na kuondoka, bila kushughulikia tatizo

Ametoa wito kwa wahusika kushughulikia changamoto hiyo kwa kuwa inawaumiza wengi na inahatarisha Maisha Watu pia

Akizungumza katika mjadala kuhusu “AI na kesho ya Vyombo vya Habari:Fursa au Tishio” Mhariri Mtendaji Mkuu (The Chanzo), Tony Alfred amesema AI imesaidia kurahisisha kazi ambazo zingekuchukua muda mrefu, Mfano; kuandika hotuba

Ameongeza “Changamoto ni kwamba imesababisha mkanganyiko wa baadhi ya vitu kuwa na ugumu katika kutofautisha, mfano picha inaweza kutengenezwa kwa AI na ikawa ngumu kutambua kama ni halisi au la”

Akizungumza katika mjadala kuhusu “AI na kesho ya Vyombo vya Habari:Fursa au Tishio” Mwandishi wa Habari (Crown Media), Imani Luvanga amesema Jamii haina budi kuichukulia AI kama fursa, kwani kila kitu kinachokuja kina faida na changamoto zake lakini hatuwezi kuikimbia

Aidha, amesisitiza umuhimu wa kila Chombo cha Habari kutengeneza Sera kuhusu AI, kwa kuwa ili AI ifanye kazi inahitaji taarifa ambayo sisi ndio tunailisha

Ameongeza kwa kusema “ Kuna umuhimu wa kujiandaa na changamoto zake, Mfano; Kwenye suala la lugha inaweza kutafsiri tofauti na uhalisia, hivyo bila kuhakiki (fact check) inaweza kukupoteza na kukuondolea maana nzima”

IMANI LUVANGA (Crown Media): Ukiendekeza uvivu kwa sababu ya matumizi ya AI ipo siku itakuaibisha, inaweza isiwe leo au kesho lakini itakapokuaibisha inaweza kuwa na madhara makubwa

Tusijifiche katika AI kuwa inatufanya kuwa wavivu, ukiona mtu wa hivyo ujue alikuwa mvivu siku zote ila anatumia tu AI kama kisingizio

Akichangia Mjadala wa AI na kesho ya Vyombo vya Habari, Nuzulack Dausen (Nukta Africa) amesema wakati watu wakipoteza kazi kutokana na AI kuna watu wanapata kazi na fursa kutokana na uwepo wa AI

Ameeleza kuwa miaka kadhaa nyuma teknolojia ilipoingia majukumu ya Karani yalibadilika na inawezekana alipoteza kazi, kisha mtu mwingine akapata kazi kuratibu teknolojia husika

BUKOBA: Waziri wa Katiba na Sheria, Dkt. Damas Ndumbaro ametoa wito kwa Watanzania kupuuza Wanasiasa wanaowashawishi kutoshiriki katika Uchaguzi Mkuu wa Oktoba 2025, akisisitiza kuwa haki ya kushiriki Uchaguzi ni ya Kikatiba kwa kila Mtanzania mwenye vigezo

Amesema "Vigezo vya kumzuia Mtu kushiriki Uchaguzi ni kama si Mtanzania, ana matatizo ya akili, amehukumiwa kwa kosa la jinai, au hana Kitambulisho cha MpigaKura. Kama hauna kasoro hizo, kwanini usitumie haki yako?"

Ameyasema hayo Aprili 14, 2025 katika Uwanja wa Mashujaa, Manispaa ya Bukoba Mkoani Kagera
