What kind of work are we actually building AI agents to do? 🤖 🏗️ Join Campbell Lund, Research Scholar and @zanmuny Research Fellow from Cohere Labs on October 2nd as they dive into their their latest project: building the Agentic Task Ecosystem (ATE) dataset. They'll share insights from the creation and analysis of ATE—a supply-side measure of automation which connects agentic tools to occupational tasks. Additionally, they will explore why only 2.6% of tools actually match to existing tasks, and discuss what these patterns mean for the future of work across different industries and occupations.

Does anyone here know someone who works at a telecom operator or has experience recovering a lost or stolen phone? A family member’s phone was recently stolen, and it has a lot of important personal and health-related documents that unfortunately cannot be recovered from anywhere else. We’re trying everything we can to locate and recover the phone (beyond Google Find My Device and Samsung Find). If you know anyone who works in telecom, device recovery, or has dealt with something similar, please let me know. Any reliable contact or guidance would mean a lot.

Applications are open. The Jasiri Growth Accelerator is a growth and investment-readiness intervention supporting existing businesses in Kenya and Rwanda that make goods and services accessible and affordable to unserved and underserved markets.

This funding is just one part of a broader support model, one that includes milestone-led venture building, technical expertise, investor readiness, and access to a wider ecosystem. This is growth-stage support, not an idea-stage incubator. If you have proven product-market fit, growing users and repeatable revenue, we want to hear from you. Applications close on 8 October 2026.
