Introduction: Digital Dependence vs. Sovereignty in Africa As Africa’s digital economy accelerates, the continent faces a pivotal choice...

U.S. campaigns no longer court a “median voter”; they model each citizen as a shifting bundle of signals. By fusing identity anchoring with behavioral and emotional data, AI delivers micro-narratives that mobilize, deter, or polarize—often outside public view. This paper maps the shift from persuasion to programmable influence and proposes guardrails to protect voter autonomy.

This paper explores how Wayne Wheeler and Edward Bernays mastered manipulative, hyper-targeted messaging—leveraging fear, identity, and symbolism—to shift national behavior, and shows how Firnal builds on their blueprint by using data-driven personalization to influence audiences at scale.

The rapid growth of cloud computing and artificial intelligence is driving demand for large-scale data centers worldwide - these data centers demand incredible amounts of power and face unique challenges in cooling and infrastructure limitations.

This paper argues that in a recession and era of ad fatigue, data-driven marketing is the key to cutting costs, improving effectiveness, and sustaining growth.

Asase, a fictional Sub-Saharan nation, catalyzes economic growth and digital sovereignty through a hybrid AI-ready data center, driving local innovation, inclusion, and global influence. Native AI and trusted data systems turn the country into a regional tech leader.

A visionary framework from Hikmah Education that reimagines U.S. schooling for the AI era—merging generative AI-driven personalization, ancient mentorship-based pedagogy, and project-based learning to equip students with the human-centric skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving global workforce.
