ContentsQuote of the week"While the technology is still in the early stages of its potential, it still offers the industry a remarkably strong platform from which to build integrated and efficient quality control solutions. Ultimately, as connectivity improves and systems given increased capacity for connected communication and collaboration, AI and automation will transform process capability and efficiency."

Comment of the week"What excites me about this appointment…as you know racism manifests itself these days as hate speech, mainly occurring on digital platforms like social media. As it happens, during the elections there was a lot of disinformation on digital platforms and personal information of voters was being abused. Therefore, I’m hoping my position as the Information Regulator will enable me to make a substantial contribution to the committee."
- Advocate Pansy Tlakula
