JOEL TIAGO RESEARCH

Joel Tiago: AI researcher in Namibia

I am Joel Tiago, founder and CEO of AISOD, a researcher and software engineer based in Windhoek, Namibia. I research and present The AI Focus on NBC TV’s Business Today.

What I publish here

This is my research archive for artificial intelligence in Namibia and questions relevant to its use across Africa. I turn broadcast discussions and their supporting slides into written companions, inspect selected claims against sources, and develop working papers. The archive is intended for readers who want to examine the evidence behind a public explanation of AI.

My current published companions cover AI concepts and terminology and AI tutoring, teacher support and language access in Namibian education. Each has a separate evidence record. See the publication index for paper versions and downloads.

Research interests

I focus on practical AI use, software development, public understanding of AI, and the conditions that make a tool useful in a local setting. In education, that includes independent learning, teacher review, language quality and access. The wider broadcast archive covers sectors including healthcare, agriculture, business, public services and tourism; unreviewed episodes are labelled as such.
