AI & Culture : Let's Talk.
Have you ever thought about what happens to our culture as AI becomes part of everyday life?
Can AI help preserve culture, or will it gradually reshape it? Whose culture is AI learning from, and whose stories, languages, and perspectives might be left behind?
Join us this Wednesday for another AI Meetup as we explore a question that matters to all of us:
How can we use and build AI while preserving our cultural identity in an evolving AI era?
No matter your background, if you're curious about AI and its impact, we'd love to have you with us.
🎲 And we're bringing games! Come for a fun evening with great discussions and new connections.

Join us tomorrow for Mapping the Trap: Real Conversations About AI and Human Work, an interactive seminar series exploring what happens when AI meets human-facing fields like education, healthcare, management, and beyond.
This is an open space for honest conversation about why human agency can't be automated, how to spot the fake metrics that often shape our everyday work, and what it looks like to build AI that works with people rather than around them.
The session will be joined by two incredible experts in the field: Dr. Kende Kefale, Senior Information Analyst at the University of Cape Town (UCT), and Dr. Yabebal Fantaye, Co-founder of 10 Academy & Tenacious Intelligence.
Share this with someone you know would enjoy being part of the conversation.

The frontier models don’t sound native. We gave ElevenLabs, Google, and OpenAI the same script we gave our model.
Sound on.

Episode 4 is finally here! 🎙️🔥
I sat down with Birhan Nega, a software developer with over 10 years of experience, entrepreneur, company founder and content creator.
We talked about his journey in tech, building a company in Ethiopia, working with international teams, discipline, remote opportunities, AI and what genuinely separates an experienced engineer from someone who only knows how to write code.

We're releasing the first batch of Dataset.ET open speech data for Amharic.
22.7 hours. 7,405 recordings. 320 speakers. Free, CC BY 4.0, on Hugging Face.
Amharic has close to no open speech data. That's the gap we're trying to close, and this is the first step rather than the finished thing.
Some honesty about what this is: it's a first batch. The audio isn't preprocessed yet. We're not going to tell you it's the best quality out there. We don't think it is. What we want is for people to actually use it and tell us where it falls short.
The next release will be different: properly preprocessed audio, a real data pipeline with testing and validation built in. This exists because 320 people in Ethiopia gave their voices to it, and because contributors reviewed each other's recordings. Thank you to all of them.
If you're working on Ethiopian languages, low-resource ASR, or you just want to talk about the data, DM us. We'd genuinely like to hear from you.

I've been using Telegram for everything sharing docs, trip photos, notes, whatever. I'd make a group or a channel, dump files in it, and then spend forever scrolling to find anything again.
So I thought: why not build a Telegram client just for that? Something that keeps it all organized like a real drive.
That's MyDrive. I've been using it myself for a while now, and it's become how I keep everything:
📁 Folders, photos, music, search like a real drive
👥 Share folders with anyone on Telegram
🔑 Sign in with Telegram, no setup
♾️ Free, no storage limit it's your own Telegram
💻 Web, Android, Windows, Linux
Your files stay in a private channel in your own account. No MyDrive server, no copies anywhere else.
Try it https://mydrive.pro.et
If you try it, tell me what you think I read every reply

there's no MyDrive server at all. Your files are stored in a private channel in your own Telegram account, and your sign-in and settings are saved only on your device (your browser or phone). MyDrive talks straight to Telegram. Nobody else can see your files.
