This abstract provides a unique perspective on the democratisation of innovation in Africa through Artificial Intelligence (AI) trends. Unlike traditional research papers, this study eschews a problem statement and methodology, opting to paint a holistic picture of the evolving landscape of innovation in Africa, particularly concerning AI. Authored by an established publisher, this unconventional approach serves as a preface to future research in the burgeoning field of AI in Africa. By examining the intersection of AI trends and democratisation of innovation, this study offers insights into the transformative potential of AI technologies in addressing societal challenges, empowering local communities, and driving inclusive growth across the continent. As Africa embraces AI as a catalyst for progress, this abstract sets the stage for further exploration of the implications, opportunities, and challenges that lie ahead in harnessing the power of AI to unlock Africa's vast potential for innovation and development.This abstract provides a unique perspective on the democratisation of innovation in Africa through Artificial Intelligence (AI) trends.
