Abeba Birhane

**Abeba Birhane** ke moitsesaense wa tlhaloganyo yo o tsholetsweng kwa Ethiopia yo o berekang kwa makopanelong a ditsamaiso tse di raraaneng tsa go ikamanya le maemo, go ithuta ka metšhine, tshekamelo ya algorithm le dithuto tse di masisi tsa lotso. Tiro ya ga Birhane le Vinay Prabhu e senotse gore ditshwantsho tse dikgolo tsa ditshwantsho tse gantsi di dirisiwang go tlhabolola dithulaganyo tsa AI, go akaretsa ImageNet le 80 Million Tiny Images, di ne di na le maina a bomorafe le a bosotoma le ditshwantsho tse di kgopisang.  O ne a lemogiwa ke VentureBeat jaaka motlhami yo mogolo mo ponong ya khomputara mme a bidiwa jaaka mongwe wa batho ba le 100 ba ba nang le tlhotlheletso e kgolo mo AI 2023 ke makasine wa TIME. 

## Botshelo le thuto
Birhane o tsholetswe kwa Ethiopia. O ne a amogela Bachelor of Science ya gagwe mo Psychology le Bachelor of Arts mo Philosophy go tswa kwa The Open University. Ka ngwaga wa 2015, o weditse Master of Science in Cognitive Science mme, ka ngwaga wa  2021, Ph.D. ya gagwe kwa Complex Software Lab kwa School of Computer Science kwa University College Dublin. 

## Tiro le patlisiso
Birhane o ne a ithuta ka ditlamorago tsa boranyane jo bo golang jwa AI le kafa bo bopang batho le ditšhaba tsa lefelo leo ka teng. O ne a lemoga gore dithulaganyo tsa AI di ama thata ditlhopha tse di bokoa tse di jaaka badiri ba ba godileng, batho ba ba fetolang bong jwa bone, batswakwa le bana. Dipatlisiso tsa gagwe ka ga maitsholo a a amanang le batho ba bangwe di fentse sekgele sa pampiri e e gaisang kwa NeurIPS's Black in AI workshop ka  ngwgaga wa 2019.Gape o ithutile le go kwala ka algorithmic colonization e e gogwang ke merero ya dikgwebo. Tiro ya gagwe mo go decolonizing computational sciences e ne ya bua ka dikgatelelo tse di ruilweng mo dithulaganyong tsa ga jaana segolo thata mo basading ba mmala. 

Ka ngwaga wa 2020, Birhane le Vinay Prabhu, moitsesaense yo mogolo wa go ithuta ka metšhine kwa UnifyID, ba gatisitse pampiri e e tlhatlhobang go kokoanngwa ga data go go nang le mathata, go tshwaiwa, go kgaoganngwa le ditlamorago tsa ditshwantsho tse dikgolo tsa ditshwantsho. Ditheo tse tsa tshedimosetso, go akaretsa ImageNet le MIT's 80 Million Tiny Images, di dirisitswe go tlhabolola diketekete tsa di-algorithms tsa AI le ditsamaiso. Birhane le Prabhu ba fitlhetse gore di ne di na le maina a a tlhaolang batho ka lotso le a a nyatsang basadi mmogo le ditshwantsho tse di kgopisang. [ Seno se ne sa felela ka gore MIT e ntshe sete ya data ya 80 Million Tiny Images ka boithaopo le semmuso.   

Bosheng jaana, Birhane o ne a dira le Rediet Abebe, George Obaido, le Sekou Remy mo go batlisiseng dikgoreletsi tsa go abelana tshedimosetso mo Afrika. Ba ne ba lemoga gore go sa lekalekane ga maatla go botlhokwa thata mo go abelaneng tshedimosetso, tota le fa tshedimosetso e tswa kwa Afrika.
