Leveraging recommender systems NLP and predictive analytics and trained on a multimodal dataset of videos audio tracks subtitles and anonymized user interactions across English French Akan Swahili Yoruba and Hausa Muna TV enables families educators and content partners to discover relevant local animations improve engagement and expand access in local languages. Through the AI Hub for Sustainable Development we are seeking technical partnerships with research institutes to advance NLP for low-resource African languages as well as infrastructure support to secure the scalable cost-effective compute necessary for deploying our AI features across the continent. Through the Compute Accelerator Ready Track Muna TV will optimize real time inference and large-scale deployment using dedicated GPU and cloud credits supported by AWS and gain mentorship on data compute and scaling for low bandwidth African networks. Priorities include automated subtitling and dubbing model quantization and cost efficient serving. With live deployment traction collaborations with Google News Initiative UNICEF Ghana and MEST and a growing pipeline with African studios and distributors demand is rising in Ghana and across the continent. Muna TV exemplifies Africa's new generation of AI innovators turning compute access into real world impact for children and creators.
