The Kenya Sports Oral History Archive (News #190) launched its AI Memory Assistant on September 3, 2025—a voice-enabled tool that lets users ask questions like * Tell me about the first women’s marathon in Kenya * or * What did Seraphino Antao say about racism in sport? * and receive curated audio clips, transcripts, and photos. Built with iHub and Google AI, it uses NLP trained on Swahili, Dholuo, and Kikuyu. Memory shouldn’t be locked in vaults—it should be alive in conversation, said archivist Dr. Mwanga. Over 40,000 hours of testimony are now searchable. Schools receive free classroom licenses.
