Irritated by misinformation and myths about the coronavirus, a university student has developed an Artificial Intelligence solution to curb misinformation and answer questions on the Covid-19 pandemic. Brian Ndegwa, a second-year Bachelor of Science in Information Technology student at the Dedan Kimathi University of Technology developed the system dubbed ‘Rona’. Rona, Ndegwa said, is also different in the sense that, the more Rona gets used, the more is becomes better at what she does. Ndegwa said Rona will help anyone who is curious to know anything about coronavirus. “It is through accurate information that we can reduce the spread of the disease and reduce misinformation going round,” he adds.
