Also in Tech Life this week, we have another story about social media. It’s about farmers in Africa, so-called agri-influencers, and how they’re cultivating an online movement. Shiona McCallum tests a new maritime AI communication system. And a Japanese tech company is trying to eradicate malaria using drones.
