AI for South Africa
AI for South Africa is the podcast that makes artificial intelligence practical, accessible and useful for South Africans — from Soweto to Stellenbosch, from the classroom to the boardroom. Hosted by Maxine McKelvey-Brown of Maximillion Digital, each episode teaches one concrete skill using real South African examples across business, education, family life and everyday work. Whether you're a spaza shop owner, an HR manager, a teacher or just someone trying to understand what all the AI fuss is about — this show is for you. No jargon. No hype. Just practical AI for South Africa.
