Kenya’s AI Future Is Closer Than I Thought

I went inside AI EVERYTHING x GITEX Kenya at KICC in Nairobi, one of the biggest AI events in East Africa.

And what I saw didn’t feel like a normal tech event.

It felt like a glimpse into something much bigger happening in Kenya’s AI and startup scene.

From AI startups and developers to global tech companies, everyone was building, pitching, and showing what the future of artificial intelligence in Africa might look like.

In this vlog, I take you inside the event, walk through KICC, and share what it actually feels like to be in the middle of Kenya’s AI moment.

📍 Location: KICC, Nairobi, Kenya
🎥 Event: AI EVERYTHING x GITEX Kenya

Workspace agents in ChatGPT: Admin and builder controls

Workspace agents in ChatGPT help teams turn repeatable workflows into shared agents that can pull in context, use tools, and move work forward on their own.

In this demo, you’ll see how admins and builders can set safeguards for workspace agents. Enterprise admins can centrally manage who can use, build, and publish agents, and define what agents are allowed to do. Builders can also configure when agents should ask for approval before taking specific actions, so agents work the way teams need them to across users and workflows.

Workspace agents are generally available to ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, and Edu.

Building Visual ML Pipelines to Python with H2O Driverless AI | Part 22

How H2O.ai bridges visual no-code ML pipelines and code-first Python execution for diverse data science working styles.

AI teams contain visual thinkers, coders, and everyone in between. Driverless AI supports intuitive wizards and visual pipeline diagrams for feature engineering and model tuning. MLOps allows switching between UI-based row scoring and command-line batch execution. h2oGPTe agents generate sandbox-tested Python code that can be exported, modified, and used in automated testing—enabling teams to fluidly transition from a visual interface to a fully scriptable environment without losing any work.

Technical Capabilities & Resources

➤ Visual Pipeline Composition: Visualize feature engineering, model selection, and ensembling steps as interactive diagrams in Driverless AI.
🔗 https://docs.h2oai.com/driverless-ai/latest-stable/docs/userguide/scoring_pipeline_visualize.html

➤ No-Code to Code Conversion: Export UI workflows from Driverless AI into reproducible, executable Python scripts.

Part 1: Evaluate a RAG Agent End-to-End with MLflow | Traces, Ground Truth & Multi-Framework Scorers

Part 1: Evaluate a RAG Agent End-to-End with MLflow | Traces, Ground Truth & Multi-Framework Scorers

Learn how to build and evaluate a production-style Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) agent with MLflow. This is Part 1 of a two-part series on a complete workflow: register prompts and the agent, capture execution traces with ground-truth expectations, and run evaluations across multiple frameworks from a single MLflow interface.

What this video covers:
Use case: A “school assistant” agent that answers children’s questions about school policies (cell phones, attendance, and more) in a child-friendly tone.
👉 Stack: LangChain, FAISS, Amazon Bedrock, MLflow

Workflow highlights:
• Prompt registration in the MLflow Prompt Registry (versioning + aliases like "production" so prompts can change without redeploying code)
• Agent definition using MLflow’s standardized agent base class (logging, versioning, deployment patterns)
• Trace capture on evaluation questions, including retrieved context and final outputs
• Ground truth expectations from subject matter experts, logged with traces for evaluation reference
• Multi-framework evaluation in one place: Custom MLflow LLM judge, Ragas, Arize Phoenix, and a deterministic retriever scorer

Results: Aggregated and per-trace metrics with judge rationales, plus tracking over time (including moving averages) to monitor iteration.

Coming in Part 2: Aligning a custom judge with human SME feedback using natural language when generic LLM judges are less reliable in domain-specific settings.
