Review notes for Kopano

Preview built 29 Oct 2026. The live goodaiglobal.org was not touched. Nothing here is published.

What changed in this preview

Added a dated "Since March 2026" timeline with a source link for each entry.
Rewrote the five briefs from Feb-Mar 2026 and added one new brief (POPIA/FNB). Each is marked Draft and cites its sources.
Replaced the stat strip and ticker with figures that have a named source.
Subscribe form is disabled. No data is collected.

"Over 90% of Africa's compute capacity is controlled by foreign hyperscalers"
"Youth unemployment at 45.5%"
"Broadband ranking: SA #72 globally, Rwanda climbing"
"Municipal audits: 28% clean audits nationwide"
"POPIA enforcement: 3 new enforcement notices issued"
"Ubuntu Town: Phase 1 community deployment live" (needs your confirmation before it returns)
The old SA brief ("what it actually says"): the draft it analysed was withdrawn on 26 Apr 2026.

CONFIRMED by Kopano, 29 Oct 09:42: attribution stays “Keke Lebaka, Founder & Editor-in-Chief”. (Quote wording itself carried over from the live site.)
Whether the five articles may be published under the desk names (Signal, Policy, Compute, Markets, Data) or need a named author. No bylines were invented.
Who approves editorial copy before it goes live (these are drafts written from public sources).
Whether "Media Intelligence" has a running pipeline. The live site says real-time and automated. We could not verify it.
Constitutional Observatory: the framework, rights-impact and country-comparison pages need content you approve.
Africa AI Index page: what data should it show, and from which sources?
Whether to bring back any removed stat, with a source you accept (for example Stats SA for unemployment).
Support page ("Fund Africa's AI Future"): enquiry-only, or a real payment route later. No payments were wired.
Newsletter and contact: provider and receiving inbox. Needs consent text and a POPIA privacy notice before it is connected.

Some figures come through secondary sources: the 0.6% share cites ADCA via Kilwa Research; the 1.5-2.2 GW figure cites McKinsey via HSF Kramer; the Nigeria deadlines are KPMG's reading of the CBN standards. Primary documents should be checked before launch.
Rwanda "first dedicated AI institution" is how Kigali Daily News and iAfrica describe it. It is attributed, not asserted as our own claim.
The March 2027 South Africa date comes from a parliamentary reply on PMG. An earlier Reuters report said January 2027.
Kenya's AI Bill item rests on one newsletter (Africa AI News). Worth a second source.
AU Libreville ministers' session (26-29 Oct) is happening this week and is not covered yet.

This preview is a static page on a separate Cloudflare Pages project. The live Next.js worker, DNS and repository are unchanged.
To go live, the content needs to be ported into the goodaiglobal-web repo, previewed there, and switched only on your explicit go, with rollback.
Cloudflare's $23.46 overdue balance is still a risk to every hosted site.
