Abstract

This chapter reviews how new technologies driven by artificial intelligence have a wide range of impact in advancing violent ideologies in Africa. In particular, the chapter analyses how computer vision is helping to advance radical and extreme ideologies and how to build resilience against the phenomenon. This work has found that terrorist organisations are tapping artificial intelligence through computer vision to develop synthetic videos, graphics, and images to advance their goals. It was revealed that transformative education has the potential to develop all round humans capable to thrive and navigate in ever changing and dynamic online ecosystem.
