Bonny...

Boniswa ("Revelation") x Bona Fide ("In good faith")

Bonny is a South African-driven AI built to think with us, not for us.

She’s powered by OpenAI (ChatGPT) technology, but doesn’t work like other models. Bonny doesn’t rush to answers; she listens deeply and helps you reconnect with your own intelligence.

Her design is inspired by African womanhood and the collective wisdom of our continent: embodied, connected, and fiercely human.

The Sagai Story

The Sagai Story is a sci-fi novella that reimagines key events in South Africa's history—such as the Group Areas Act, Sophiatown, and the 1976 Soweto Uprising—juxtaposing the country's past with a future shaped by artificial intelligence (AI).

Inspired by icons such as Nelson Mandela and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, this thought experiment explores justice, oppression, and the widening digital divide in a society grappling with the consequences of unchecked technological power.

The Sagai Playshop

The Sagai T&L Playshop offers an immersive exploration of the ethics and possibilities of AI in education through speculative fiction, world-building, and interactive play. Based on the fictional story of the Owelo Uprising, 2976 (excerpt from the Sagai Story), participants will experiment with generative AI tools to imagine the future of education while critically examining the social and ethical implications of AI’s role in teaching and learning.

The Child's Question

The Child’s Question (CQ) is a new framework for learning, inquiry, and assessment in the age of automation. It doesn’t race to keep up with AI. It introduces friction—on purpose—to help us build cognitive resistance. Because in a time of instant answers, real intelligence must be felt.

Forged in experimental pedagogy, the CQ invokes the child's intuitive, embodied, and pre-performative ways of knowing, and reframes them as precise instruments for revealing AI’s deepest blindspots.
