Nana Ghartey, a Ghanaian techie has designed an artificial intelligence (AI) voice assistant for Ghanaians.
Unlike the Siri Artificial Intelligence that recognizes foreign languages like English, German, Dutch, Swedish, Italian, Russia, Nana’s AI voice assistance, Abena AI specializes in native Ghanaian languages, Twi, Ewe, Dagaare, Dagbani and others.
Abena AI was inspired by Apple’s Siri voice assistant, earning it the epithet ‘Twi Siri,’ and it is supposed to work without the need for an internet connection.

Afia Grace had this to say: Is a nice developed app, alright. But the innovator’s use of the name Abena on numerous occasions reduces the feeling in the usage of the app, can’t it be modernized in a way that one will use his/her name instead of Abena?
Philip Mcarthy commented; wow, this is nice. why is it trending????
