In the entire 20+ minute presentation, indigenous knowledge is not mentioned until the last minute of closing when the speaker throws in cognitive computing... that "takes into account indigenous knowledge, tribal knowledge, and knowledge of Africa." He does not elaborate on what any of those three terms mean (and why are they lumped together?) and uses them in a way that makes me squirm at his lack of political correctness. The rest of the presentation is focused on the "technical" aspects of cognitive computing and he mentions at several points "well let me get a little technical here...."

Quote:
"So to wrap up the story, I think you've you've understood that these these techniques of cognitive computing and effort, they're really made for each other, but we need to solve them, we need to address them through an adaptive and a learning manner. That takes into account indigenous knowledge, tribal knowledge, and knowledge of Africa. What will work, what interdomain effects are important in Africa, and which ones are dominant and which ones are not. So we must integrate this cognition across these many domains, and we will discover relationships."
