AfroTech 2026: More Than a Conference, It Was a Movement

Houston, November 2–6, 2026

Some conferences are about business and networking. AfroTech 2026 was about something bigger: community, opportunity, and making a difference. From the moment I arrived in Houston, the energy was incredible. Everywhere, people were connecting, sharing ideas, and building relationships. After more than 20 years in IT, I've attended plenty of industry events, but AfroTech felt different. The HBCU Student Meetup, Divine Nine Meetup, and Engineering Meetup were highlights. Students connected with industry leaders, professionals reconnected, and new opportunities emerged. It was a powerful reminder that representation matters and that we belong wherever the future is being shaped.

I attended with Wellcome, a telehealth behavioral health platform designed for Black and Brown communities. Our mission is simple: connect people with therapists who understand their cultural experiences and encourage prevention over intervention. Throughout the week, conversations at our booth reinforced just how important accessible, culturally competent mental healthcare is. The statistics tell part of the story, but the personal experiences people shared made the need real.

One of my biggest takeaways came from a HealthStack discussion moderated by Toni Marshall, featuring Dr. Vindell Washington. The message was simple but powerful: Trust cannot be an afterthought. It must be built into healthcare and technology from the beginning. That principle is central to how we're developing Wellcome, testing the platform across Android, iOS, and the web while listening to real users and improving their experience.

I left Houston energized and inspired. AfroTech reminded me that meaningful progress happens when community, technology, and purpose come together. And if there's one message I'd like everyone to remember, it's this: Don't wait until someone is struggling to reach out. Check in before you crash out.

No More Dead Zones: Your Phone Meets Space

We’ve all seen it: “No Service” appears just when you need directions, a message, or help. For decades, reliable mobile coverage required being near a cell tower. That assumption is changing. Satellite-to-phone technology is bringing connectivity directly from space to ordinary smartphones. Instead of building costly towers in deserts, forests, oceans, and other hard-to-reach places, satellites in low Earth orbit can act like cell towers above us.

A leading example is the SpaceX–T-Mobile partnership. SpaceX launches satellites that communicate directly with compatible phones using cellular radio technology, no specialized satellite phone or bulky antenna required. Early services focus on essentials: texting, picture messages, select messaging apps, maps, weather, and emergency communication. Over time, providers aim to expand into voice calls, faster data, and richer mobile services.

The implications go well beyond convenience. Satellite-backed networks could keep people connected during natural disasters when local towers and power systems fail. They could also strengthen safety for travelers, outdoor enthusiasts, farmers, shippers, and logistics teams working far from traditional coverage.

This will not replace terrestrial networks overnight, and coverage will still depend on your device, provider, and plan. But the direction is clear: the next time your phone loses signal, help may be orbiting hundreds of miles overhead.

If your phone could connect anywhere on Earth, what would you do first, and what would you finally stop worrying about?

My Photos vs. My To-Do List: The Future of Your AI Assistant

AI is no longer just about answering questions. The next wave is about an assistant that actually knows you and gets stuff DONE. Two big ideas are competing for that future.

Dazzle - The AI That Learns From Your Life. Created by former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, Dazzle's idea is simple: your camera roll knows you best. Your photos show your interests, your favorite places, what you love, what you need to fix. Snap a flyer, a product, a broken faucet — and it tries to figure out the next step for you. Pros: Truly personal. It sees your real life. Cons: Photos are private. And a photo doesn't always tell the whole story — AI can guess wrong.

Muse - The AI That Gets Things Done For You. Muse, from Meta, is taking a different path. Less about watching, more about doing. Think of all the busywork: researching, writing emails, booking appointments, comparing products, following up. Muse aims to connect to your services and actually complete those tasks for you. Pros: Less talk, more action. A real time-saver, especially for small business owners. Cons: The more access it has, the more we need to demand privacy, accuracy, and human control.

So, which is better? It depends on what you value more. Dazzle wants to understand your life. Muse wants to take action in your life. One is about personal context. The other is about productivity. The big shift is clear: we went from typing commands, to chatting naturally with AI. The next step is AI that remembers, understands, and acts.

For me, the winner won't be the one with the most features. It will be the one that is reliable, protects your privacy, and genuinely gives you back your time.

What about you? Would you rather have an AI that understands your life from your photos, or one that handles your to-do list for you?

AI Is Booming. But Where’s the Real Business Value?

Building powerful AI is impressive. Turning it into a profitable, sustainable business is the real challenge. Imagine an AI assistant that can research products, compare options, and make purchases on your behalf. The technology already exists, and the possibilities seem unlimited. But excitement alone doesn't create profits. AI requires massive investments in infrastructure, computing power, data centers, and energy. As adoption grows, so do the costs. The question isn't whether people will use AI. It's whether companies can create enough value to justify the investment.

The biggest opportunities may come from in improving customer experiences, making businesses more productive, enhancing advertising and marketing performance, streamlining commerce and transactions, and creating entirely new ways to interact with information. Yet popularity doesn't guarantee success.

A product can attract millions of users and still struggle to become profitable if operating costs remain high or users aren't willing to pay for the value it provides. That's why the future of AI won't be determined solely by the most advanced technology. The winners will be the organizations that successfully turn AI capabilities into measurable business outcomes and long-term value.

The AI race is no longer just about innovation. It's about economics. What do you think? Will AI become the next major growth engine, or are we underestimating the challenges of turning AI innovation into sustainable profits?

The Tesla Roadster: A Faster Future—but Are We Ready?

A car can turn heads with its design. It can make headlines with its speed. But the Tesla Roadster raises a question that goes beyond either: As technology becomes more powerful, are we getting better at deciding how to use it? The Roadster represents an ambitious vision for electric vehicles, and an opportunity to think about where innovation is taking us. Its appeal isn’t just about performance. It’s about challenging our expectations of what a car can be.

Electric propulsion, advanced computing, and aerospace engineering are expanding the possibilities of vehicle design. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence is prompting broader conversations about how much responsibility we should give machines. But these developments shouldn’t be confused with one another. A faster car isn’t necessarily a smarter car, and impressive engineering doesn’t automatically make a vehicle safer or more practical. The important question is whether a breakthrough solves a meaningful problem—not simply whether it pushes a technical limit.

As vehicles become more connected and automated, the conversation needs to move beyond speed and specifications: Who is responsible when an automated system makes a mistake? How do we protect connected vehicles from cyberattacks? Will new technology become widely accessible, or deepen the divide between those who can afford it and those who cannot?

How should we weigh performance against safety, sustainability, and everyday usefulness? These questions deserve as much attention as the technology itself. Progress matters most when its benefits extend beyond an impressive demonstration. The Roadster offers a compelling starting point for a bigger discussion about responsibility. Imagination encourages engineers to challenge limits. Critical thinking helps us decide which limits are worth pushing—and what safeguards should come with them.

The challenge isn’t to choose between innovation and caution. It’s to bring them together: to build technology that is exciting, useful, secure, and worthy of our trust. The future shouldn’t be judged only by how quickly we reach it, but by how thoughtfully we build it.

Smart Glasses Are Changing Healthcare — And the Future Is Already Here

What if doctors could access patient records, consult specialists, and receive real-time guidance without ever looking away from the patient? Smart glasses are making that possible. By combining cameras, voice commands, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence, these wearables put critical information directly in a clinician’s line of sight—hands-free and in real time.

Doctors can view medical records, instructions, and specialist input while keeping their hands free and attention on the person in front of them. Through live video and remote assistance, specialists can guide medical teams from miles away—especially valuable in rural and underserved communities. Medical students can observe procedures from a first-person perspective, gaining practical insight into surgeries and clinical techniques. Hands-free documentation, digital checklists, and fewer device switches can save time and reduce errors. As AI advances, smart glasses may help clinicians surface relevant information, translate conversations, and receive contextual guidance during patient interactions.

Patient privacy, data security, accuracy, cost, and overreliance on AI must be addressed. The goal is not to replace medical judgment—it is to support it. Smart glasses are more than another wearable gadget. They represent a shift toward healthcare that is more connected, hands-free, and intelligent. The real opportunity is not simply giving doctors more technology; it is giving them more time to focus on what matters most: their patients.

If technology can help doctors see more, decide faster, and reach more people, how do we ensure healthcare becomes not just more advanced—but more human?

Are smartphones on the way out? 🕶️

The next major shift in tech isn't going in your pocket—it's going right on your face. Smart glasses are finally fixing their biggest flaws and getting the ultimate upgrade. Would you ditch your phone for a pair? Let me know below! 👇

Face Computers Are Finally Getting Good

The next big thing in tech might not sit on your desk or in your pocket. It might sit on your face. For years, smart glasses promised to change everything — then disappointed almost everyone. They were bulky, the battery died fast, and wearing them made you look like you'd wandered off a sci-fi set. That's finally changing.

Today's smart glasses are thinner, lighter, and genuinely useful. They pack in cameras, microphones, and AI. Ask a question without reaching for your phone. Translate a conversation in real time. Identify objects in front of you. Get directions spoken right into your ear. No screen to stare at. Just a quiet layer of intelligence over the world around you.

Why now? AI. Large language models can understand context, recognize images, and hold real conversations. Pair that with a camera and microphone, and your glasses become an assistant that sees what you see and hears what you hear. Meta, Google, Amazon, and a wave of startups are all racing to build them. The result: slimmer frames, smarter features, and faster progress every few months.

Battery life, weight, and social awkwardness remain real hurdles. But the momentum is undeniable. The smartphone didn't replace the PC overnight. Face computers won't replace your phone tomorrow either. But they don't have to. The next major shift in computing may not happen on your desk or in your pocket. It may happen on your face.

So here's the question: when your glasses know where you look, what you hear, and who you talk to — will you still call it convenience, or will you finally admit you're being watched?
