=== AI and Robotics in Europe ===
There is increasing awareness of the  positive impact that Industry 4.0 will have on developing countries. In particular, robotics and AI provides opportunities for social and economic empowerment but also poses the significant threat of premature deindustrialization.

Three questions arise: What role will robotics play, how can Africa best exploit the opportunities that intelligent automation and cognitive robotics have to offer, and how can Africa offset the threats posed by global factors?

These issues are discussed in [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8931075 Robotics and Artificial Intelligence in Africa], IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, Vol. 26, No. 4, pp. 131-135, December 2019.

<!-- CINDY stands for '''Ci'''rcular '''N'''etwork '''Dy'''namics.  It is in its early state of development and is based on many other cognitive architectures, especially the iCub cognitive architecture which was never fully realizedThe long-term goal is to design and implement an emergent artificial cognitive system that builds on the principles of growth and development through circular causality, drawing on many of the principles of the fields of Enaction,  Systems Dynamics, and Second-order Cybernetics. -->
