We should do everything in our power to ensure that when they do arrive, we can welcome and live peacefully with them, writes Wesley Diphoko AS A society, we’ve known that robots would form part of our lives in some distant future. Recent developments in the robotics field are showing us that we are closer to living with robots than was thought before. In August, Xiaomi, a Chinese tech company, instead of launching another mobile device, introduced CyberOne, a humanoid robot with the ability to walk. The humanoid robot is 177cm in height and weighs 52kg, and it comes with 21 degrees of freedom, with a curved OLED module to display real-time interactive information. Humanoid robots, by digital nature, rely on vision to process their surroundings. Equipped with a self-developed…

Facebook misinformation is bad enough, metaverse might be worse

Here’s a plausible scenario that could soon take place in the metaverse, the online virtual reality environments under rapid development by Mark Zuckerberg and other tech entrepreneurs: A political candidate is giving a speech to millions of people. While each viewer thinks they are seeing the same version of the candidate, in virtual reality they are actually each seeing a slightly different version. For each and every viewer, the candidate’s face has been subtly modified to resemble the viewer. This is done by blending features of each viewer’s face into the candidate’s face. The viewers are unaware of any manipulation of the image. Yet they are strongly influenced by it: Each member of the audience is more favourably disposed to the candidate than they would have been without any digital…

Four tips to become a successful entrepreneur

For some, the prospect of taking a risk and stepping out into the sometimes complex maze that is the South African SME sector, is too daunting. And, for others, it is a golden opportunity not to be missed. If you fall into the latter category and are raring to go, consider these four ways you can set yourself up for entrepreneurial success. Practice accepting Constructive criticism As an entrepreneur, you’ll often be reminded not to take things personally, although that is seldom accompanied by guidance on how to do that practically. What many do not realise is that learning to accept feedback without feeling like it’s a personal attack, takes lots of practice. You can start by asking for feedback often and preparing yourself mentally and emotionally to practise active…

Renewable energy requires much more investment in SA

South Africa’s energy crisis will require investment, both from the private and public sector, of an estimated R1.2 trillion until 2030, says Rand Merchant Bank’s (RMB) CEO Emrie Brown. African government energy leaders spoke of the continent’s vast untapped naturally endowed reserves of fossil fuels, to investors at the Green Energy Africa Summit in Cape Town this week, an event that drew some 1 500 delegates and 50 African ministers and government representatives. Brown said private power was booming in South Africa, and international investors were being attracted by Africa’s renewable energy opportunities. An argument for increased investment in the continent’s oil and gas reserves was succinctly put by CEF Group CEO Dr Ishmael Poolo, who quoted what the International Energy Agency says in its Africa Energy Outlook, 2022…

The paradox and mystery of China’s statistical politics

One GLOBAL product from national statisticians is the International Comparisons Program (ICP). The production of the ICP is supervised by the World Bank, on behalf of the UN Statistical Commission at the global level, and the regional banks co-ordinate this at the continental level. For example, the African Development Bank, co-ordinates the programme for Africa. The ICP measures the gross national product of countries, adjusted on the basis of purchasing power parity. The 2011 ICP results sparked intellectual discordance and we had to undertake several runs to validate the results that were released in 2014. The report was ultimately adopted at the UN Statistical Commission (UNSC) but with a statement that read: “China does not accept the results but you can use them.” The UN General Assembly adopted the UN…

Ever heard of G&T tasting? That’s gin and tea, not tonic

We know of Irish coffee – coffee, Irish whisky, sugar, and whipped cream. A classic pairing, a tale old as time. Plus, Irish coffees are so simple to make. You don’t need bar-tending experience or any special equipment to whip these up. What about G&T? Gin and tea, not the gin and tonic you were probably thinking of. It's not surprising that these once-traditional breakfast beverage blends are pairing well together. So it makes sense to put them together in the name of the ultimate thirst-quenching experience, right? However, gin and tea pairing isn't something new, it dates back to the 1800s. Gin began its life as a medicinal liquor made by Italian monks. And people all over the world have been drinking tea for thousands of centuries and for…

Aesthetic couches and vintage decor ideas

Every living room’s focal piece is the couch, and the couch’s style determines the theme of the space. To match the couch style, however, choosing the appropriate home decor collection becomes crucial. Millennials are currently favouring minimalist, aesthetically modern, and contemporary products.

Robbie Williams, Jamie Lee Curtis appear on popular talk show

Are talk shows still popular? Well, with the proliferation of offerings on streaming platforms, the allure has dipped in recent years. That said, if it is a host viewers love, like Jimmy Fallon, Trevor Noah (who recently announced his exit from The Daily Show), Jimmy Kimmel or James Corden, then diehards religiously tune in. Graham Norton continues to win over audiences with his irreverence, charm and wit. The five-time Bafta award-winner has hosted The Graham Norton Show since 2007 and it is still going strong. Of course, his ability to get the most topical A-listers to come through is a huge drawcard. Season 30 has just dropped and will be available on BritBox. The first episode dropped on Friday.

Daredevil shows up on ‘She-Hulk’ for one of the best superhero hookups ever

(NOTE: Contains spoilers for the eighth episode of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.") The devil has finally gotten his Marvel Studios due. Daredevil has made his official debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, via Charlie Cox’s much-hyped cameo in the eighth and penultimate episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law on Disney+. Now, perhaps you’re saying to yourself, but what about Spider-Man: No Way Home? Didn’t Charlie Cox appear in that billion-dollar superhero blockbuster? Correct. He did. But not as Daredevil. That cameo – which, unlike Cox’s She-Hulk appearance, came as a surprise – was only as Daredevil’s alter ego, Matt Murdock, who was offering legal advice to a Peter Parker/Spider-Man watching the world crumble around him. But what that Spider-Man: No Way Home appearance did do was put Marvel fans on…

Upcoming festivals aim to ensure chaos, hiccups will not repeated

On July 24, 2010, a large crowd gathered outside the Love Parade electronic dance festival in Duisburg, Germany where a ramp running through a narrow tunnel served as the only entrance and exit point of the festival area. When police began to realise the situation was getting out of hand due to overcrowding, they instructed new arrivals to turn back. They did not heed this warning and people continued pushing into the confined space of the tunnel. Subsequently, 21 people died due to crushed rib cages as a result of a phenomenon called “crowd turbulence”. Incidents like this don’t happen very often, but there’s always an inherent danger when pop music is mixed with large crowds. With an influx of fake tickets and malfunctioning ticket scanners causing queues and a…

AKA is back with a bang – and a new album

Having endured what he’s described as the most testing period of his life, a period in which his fiancée Anele Tembe committed suicide, the 34-year-old rapper’s larger-than-life “Supa Mega” persona has often felt like a thing of the past. But now Aka is showing signs of life through his upcoming album, Mass Country. The roll-out for the album began three weeks ago, with the release of Lemons (Lemonade), his long-awaited collaboration with Nasty C. Lemons, a song about beating the odds and coming back stronger, which is primed to become his best-performing single since 2018’s Fela In Versace.

‘Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris’ is a feel-good fashion fairy tale

The fashion show within a movie has been a staple of cinematic escapism since the days of The Women and How to Marry a Millionaire, right through Sex in the City; its vicarious pleasures never cease. That’s one takeaway from Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, a warm-hearted confection, based on Paul Gallico’s 1958 novel, that contains a short but stunning glimpse of mid-century Christian Dior designs, presented in a soignée showcase in the maestro’s Paris atelier. There, a Battersea house cleaner named Ada Harris (Lesley Manville) feasts her eyes on a collection of beautifully constructed gowns and day dresses – or “frocks”, as Mrs Harris cheerfully calls them. How she came to arrive at this particular moment is part of the fun of Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, a Cinderella…

Why a 12-year-old is the most pivotal character in ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ 5

Does she know her first name is Hannah? That she is a battle flag? That she is the daughter of freedom fighter June Osborne (formerly known as the handmaid Offred), who is the forever thorn in the side of a repressive male-dominated theocracy called Gilead? Does Hannah know she is one of the most interesting and enigmatic characters on television? No, no, of course not. But maybe? In the ongoing (and often exhausting) power struggle of The Handmaid’s Tale political sphere, 12-year-old Hannah (Jordana Blake), who has been renamed Agnes by her adoptive parents in Gilead, is the ultimate pawn. Gilead and its proxy, Serena Joy (Yvonne Strahovski), use the child they stole from June (Elisabeth Moss) to keep her in check. But the hope of Hannah – the dream…

Exclusive footage evidence of orcas hunting white sharks

The first detailed evidence of orcas hunting white sharks has been recorded via aerial footage. The findings were published in a new paper this week in The Ecological Society of America’s journal Ecology. The work forms part of long-term monitoring studies on both species and involves collaboration between various researchers, NGOs and citizen scientists. The footage, captured by helicopter and drone pilots, showed white sharks fleeing from the Mossel Bay region of the country for several weeks. It also provided novel insights into how orcas pursue, capture, and incapacitate sharks. According to lead author Alison Towner, PhD candidate at the Department of Ichthyology and Fisheries Science at Rhodes University and SA senior shark scientist at Marine Dynamics Academy in Gansbaai, the footage also confirmed at least three sharks were killed,…

‘Feels like Robben Island all over again’

Former president Jacob Zuma is expected to address his supporters tomorrow as a “free man” following the end of his 15-month imprisonment. The Department of Correctional Services confirmed Zuma’s release on Friday. The Constitutional Court had sentenced Zuma to 15 months in prison in June last year for contempt of court when he had refused to appear before the Zondo Commission on state capture over allegations of corruption during his presidency.

eThekwini’s collapse is one toilet flush away

Earlier this year KwaZulu-Natal was rocked by a succession of natural disasters the likes of which nobody could have predicted, with two severe floods within a month of each other. The province as a whole, and eThekwini specifically, experienced catastrophic weather. While nobody can be blamed for the floods, it is a different case when it comes to the government’s slow response to warnings and its handling of the disaster as a whole. Today, almost six months later, many of KZN’s people are still suffering as a result. This while the reality is that up to 80% of eThekwini’s wastewater plants are not functioning at the levels they should be – a problem area that pre-dates the torrential downpours. Meanwhile, every river in the city has dangerous levels of E…

THE EFF’s uMgungundlovu chairperson Mzwakhe Mpulo has rejected the appointment of Lulamile Mapholoba. He claimed the municipal manager had committed corruption in Umzimkhulu Local Municipality between 2009 and 2010. “He was accused of issuing R200 000 free loans to officials and when he went to the Greater Kokstad Municipality he continued,” he said. Councillor Ross Strachan, DA Msunduzi caucus leader, said his party was also concerned about Mapholoba’s appointment, but it would support and work with anyone who placed the interests of the municipality first. “There are concerns over the controversial background and the lack of transparency in the process, so the faith in the intentions of the governing party is definitely compromised. “The municipal manager must do the basics right, deal immediately with consequence management, collect equitably throughout the…

Msunduzi’s newly appointed municipal manager says he has a solid plan for the deteriorating municipality. Lulamile Mapholoba said failure was not an option and that the political will to turn the city around would contribute towards his success. But the municipal manager has a questionable past. He has been accused by some political parties of being corrupt and not fit to manage a municipality already drowning in corruption. Mapholoba left the uMhlathuze municipality in February where he had served as the municipal manager since 2020. There he faced allegations of tender fraud and was suspended, pending an investigation. However, during that period close to the end of his contract, he was able to negotiate a settlement with uMhlathuze and left before the investigation could commence. Mapholoba, who took up office…

Residents against flood victims moving into neighbourhood

Residents of Reservoir Hills and Clare Estate were against displaced flood victims moving into their areas, citing infrastructure challenges. What could be seen as a desperate attempt by a Reservoir Hills homeowner to get rid of their once-sought after home last week delayed the government’s plans to provide temporary accommodation for displaced flood victims. As a result, some 47 families ended up staying in the once-plush Royal Hotel after the owner of a property in Manton Crescent did an about-turn after negotiating a lease agreement and later decided that he wanted the government to buy the property from him. Residents around Manton Crescent voiced their objection to having the families move into their area. The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Human Settlements had been in engagements throughout the week with Reservoir Hills…

Decoding and counting the cost of Eskom’s stages of darkness

WITH no clear prospects of a potential plug to Eskom’s power drain and its effects on the ordinary person, it would be pertinent for consumers to familiarise themselves with the different stages of power cuts, what they mean, and how they affect power supply to households and businesses. Eskom started load shedding 14 years ago to “save” national grid from overloading and prevent the state-owned power utility from collapsing. The power utility’s incapacity has forced it to impose load shedding to avoid overloading of its generators. As at today, the consumers have been subjected to planned power cuts for at least 88 days since the beginning of the year. On Tuesday, two generators at the Kendal and Lethabo power stations tripped, forcing Eskom to escalate load shedding from stage…

Weighing up your energy options

With no signs of the energy crisis ending anytime soon, many households are struggling under the pressure. Preparation is key for South African households and small businesses that hope to evade the darkness. “When faced with challenging circumstances, South Africans have two options to combat load shedding: you can stock up on candles, LED lights and power banks, or you can invest in long-term solutions to power your home,” says Jeanne du Plessis, head of communications at Kandua.com, an online platform that connects those in need of home services with vetted home service providers. Depending on your budget, Du Plessis highlighted three options that can be installed (and scaled) over time. Inverter and battery backup system: This system consists of an inverter and a battery pack, which recharges when there…

Coalitions do not work for opportunistic parties

The latest government change in Johannesburg has raised the credibility stakes of coalitions in South Africa. The country has a history of dominant parties and not coalition governments. Several states in the world, on the other hand, don’t know anything else than coalition governments. For South Africans, therefore, it requires a change in the political culture. Moving from a separation of parties into two opposing camps (government and opposition) to a power-sharing culture, requires a new mindset. For the moment, the two paradigms are mixed: politics is now about two opposing alliances, still applying the old rules applicable to two opposites. This mixing of the rules is a major reason for the instability. Motions of no confidence have become the most used political instrument by the opposition. Although the number…

BASIC INCOME GRANT ANC ‘out of touch with the miserable realities’ of the people

The South African Medium Term Budget Policy Statement (MTBPS) is scheduled for delivery by the Minister of Finance on October 26. From a political economy perspective, the MTBPS will indicate whether or not the ANC will be seeking to win the 2024 national and provincial elections on a pro-poor ticket. Historical allies and voters, Cosatu, gave an unambiguous message to the ANC leadership last week at the federation’s national congress that its support in the ballot box is not guaranteed. The stubborn hubris of the ANC does not appear to be waning. They appear to be out of touch with the miserable realities of life lived by the majority of their electorate. Their recent policy conference resolution affirms their commitment to a Basic Income Grant (BIG) and universal social security,…

Voters need to take elections and democracy seriously

Lesotho went to the polls on Friday after years of political instability. The African editor chats to independent elections analyst Terry Tselane about elections in Africa and the much-needed reform of election management bodies. He also delves into the role that society, political parties and governments can play in improving the current election systems. Elections are important because they are about self-determination – being able to shape your future and your direction. But shaping your future and direction must have a relationship with what you eat every day. When you say let’s turn left, you are not saying let us turn left to be hungry. It’s because you believe turning left will allow you to put bread on the table. Voters want basic services. They see elections as the…

Starvation a reality in the conflict-ridden Sahel region

Millions of people in the Sahel risk dying of starvation if much-needed aid is not distributed timeously to the conflict-ridden Southern African region. Conflict in the region has been largely driven by a jihadist insurgency centred in the states of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, which are most affected by the crisis. The World Health Organization estimates that by the end of 2022 more than 33 million people across Burkina Faso, the far north of Cameroon, Chad, Mali, Niger, and North-East Nigeria will need live-saving assistance, an increase of more than 25% on the past five years. Add devastating natural disasters such as drought and flooding into the mix, due to climate change, and you have a recipe for disaster. Scientists say that the temperatures in the Sahel are projected…

AU and UN co-operation crucial for security of nations

THERE have been a string of military takeovers of governments in Africa in the past two years. Since August 2020, power has changed hands unconstitutionally seven times in five countries: Burkina Faso (January and October this year), Sudan (October last year), Guinea (September last year), Chad (April last year) and Mali (August 2020 and May last year). Two other African countries saw thwarted coup attempts in this period – Niger in March last year and Guinea Bissau in January this year. The events represent a sharp rise in such contested political transitions over the previous 10-year period and indicate the possibility of further instability on the continent. Over the past two decades, the AU and Regional Economic Communities(RECs)/Regional Mechanisms (RMs) have made significant efforts in addressing the situation of…

Despite humanitarian aid, life is reaching a new low

By virtually every measure, life inside Afghanistan has deteriorated to new lows in the nearly 14 months since US troops withdrew and the Taliban took over, according to a report by UN experts who have helped co-ordinate hundreds of millions of dollars worth of international aid to feed and provide healthcare for Afghans. While the assistance “took the edge off” the unfolding catastrophe, “none of us should be surprised that things still got worse”, UN Development Programme administrator Achim Steiner said. The 35-page UNDP report, scheduled for release on Wednesday, is a socio-economic snapshot of the past year in Afghanistan. It concludes that there is little prospect for improvement without the unfreezing of Afghan government assets held mostly in the US, an easing of restrictions on access to international financial…

13th ANNUAL G20 SUMMIT Will it be more of the same or is another world possible?

At the turn of the millennium, the clarion call of the global social justice movement was “another world is possible”. The 2008 global financial crisis was a basis for the formation of the Group of 20 (G20) nations, with its core task of stabilising the global financial system and saving global capitalism from itself. Over the years, major UN themes intersecting economics-trade and development have formed part of the G20 agenda, acknowledging that the global crises in the post- pandemic work is multidimensional and overlapping. The post-pandemic world and the war in Ukraine have engulfed the world in several headwinds, with record-high energy prices, inflation, supply chain challenges and the climate crisis. For South Africa and Africa, both having seats at the G20, it seems more of the same. As…

stability predicted ‘Chill’, rate hikes will ease

bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za South Africans have been hit from all angles this year, with the latest “klap” being last month’s 0.75% interest rate hike – the second-consecutive increase. Homeowners and buyers in particular are panicking about whether they can afford to meet their monthly bond repayments, and stressing about rates continuing to climb. Some are worrying about whether the country’s prime lending rate will reach the all-time high of 1998’s 25.5%, and scrambling to set up contingency plans in case they do. But for these South Africans, the expert advice is simple: chill. FNB predicts that there will be one more interest rate increase, in November, of 0.5%. After that, the situation is expected to stabilise. Of course, one can never accurately predict the future or all the global events that may…

Sharks ends disappointingly as Leinster win high-scoring thriller

THERE was no doubting the effort and indeed the class of the Sharks in Dublin last night, but they were ultimately outgunned 54-34 by Leinster in an action-packed URC match. The Dubliners were resplendent with Ireland internationals while the Sharks were playing with none of their Boks, yet the Irish had to fight for every point. Indeed, the Sharks return home from Ireland with their heads held high after adding a try-scoring bonus point to the nine points they earned from victories over Zebre and the Dragons on their three-match tour. The home team scored after just three minutes when former Springbok lock Jason Jenkins barged over. Still, the Sharks hit back almost immediately when full-back Aphelele Fassi cut through the defence to score beneath the crossbar, and as a…

Top two world ranked players Alcaraz and Ruud left red-faced

THE irony of Team World’s recent London Laver Cup coup was that Australian doubles champion Nick Kygrios was absent from the fray, having been top of captain John McEnroe’s wish list and a key contender in the past. Yet the predominantly American Team World managed to pull off their unanticipated first win in five years without him. Two stars who made major contributions to that thrilling victory, Tayler Fritz and Frances Tiafoe, are unsurprisingly through to the finals at the Japan Open this week, still brimming with confidence despite suffering Covid-19 and jet lag respectively. Kygrios, too, was cruising, playing in the singles and doubles with his Australian co-champion, Thanasi Kokkinakis, and expressing delight at being both back on court and back in Tokyo, a hitherto happy hunting ground where…

Lions earn right to roar with a clean-sweep tour

IVAN van Rooyen first described it as their best win on tour, and then after a brief moment corrected that statement to decree it was, in fact, their biggest triumph in the URC. Very few will be able to argue against the head coach’s statement as the Lions finished up their European tour with a clean sweep of victories after defeating a Test-ladened and internationally experienced Edinburgh 22-19 on Friday night at a cold and wet DAM Health Stadium. At the beginning of the season, the Joburg think tank’s goal was a top-8 finish and after defeating the Ospreys, Cardiff and now the Scottish franchise, they have the perfect platform to do so. The Lions will now enjoy five consecutive games at home in the tournament, three of them this…

Mthethwa pays tribute to sports activist Roberts

Minister of Arts, Sports and Culture Nathi Mthethwa has joined the list of luminaries paying tribute to Cheryl Roberts, a staunch sports activist who campaigned tirelessly for transformation and championed the cause of women’s sport. Roberts died on Friday at the age of 60, a few years after being diagnosed with cancer. In his statement, Mthethwa said Roberts was a recipient of the prestigious Andrew Mlangeni Green Jacket. In July 2020, Roberts acknowledged the honour on social media with a short post: “I’m privileged to be a recipient of the Andrew Mlangeni Green Jacket Award; one of the highest awards in SA sport.” Two years later, Roberts did not hide her disappointment when she noticed that the list of award recipients did not include a female. Roberts responded: “Today…

City taken to the cleaners

CAPE Town City took a hammering on home turf from visiting Angolan side Petro de Luanda, who ran out 3-0 winners in their CAF Champions League second preliminary round, first-leg clash at the Cape Town Stadium yesterday. The visitors led 1-0 at half-time, much to the delight of a small contingent of Cape Town-based Angolan fans. Both teams started cautiously and play was restricted largely to central areas not far beyond the halfway line. City slowly gained the initiative and managed several attacking sorties deep into the visitors’ half. Marc van Heerden joined the attack around the 15th-minute mark and exposed gaps in the opposition’s defence. He managed a feed to Venezuelan striker Darwin González, but his shot flew high over the crossbar. Moments later, Petro de Luanda transferred…

A night to rejuvenate body, soul

Vergelegen Wine Estate bags an Eco-Logic award

Vergelegen wine estate in Somerset West has won the Eco-Hospitality and Tourism category in the 2022 Eco-Logic Awards. Enviropaedia, an online environmental information source, created the Eco-Logic Awards in 2011. According to Vergelegen, the organisers allocate award points based on seven Eco-Logical virtues, and the size and scale of their environmental impact. The seven virtues are vision and purpose; inclusivity and interconnection; a reconnecting and regenerative relationship with nature; intellectual and emotional intelligence; ubuntu; eco-ethical consumerism; and sustainability. Enviropaedia Publishing editor, David Parry-Davies, said by using these Eco-Logical V.I.R.T.U.E.S, they could begin to heal the planet and in the process heal themselves. “By changing our thinking to become more ‘ecological’, we will change our behaviours – which in turn will create different and better outcomes and environmental conditions,” said Davies.…
