Freetown, Sierra Leone, November 9th / PRNewswire / -- Agilix Labs indicates that the company has received a grant through AWS Education Equity Initiative and will utilize the artificial intelligence and cloud technology of Amazon Web Services ( Amazon Web Services , Inc , AWS ) to support its Finder project in Sierra Leone. This project is operated by Future Learning Institute ( FLI ), and FLI is an institution established by Agilix Labs in 2025 under an agreement with the country's Ministry of Technology and Higher Education. On November 10th, FLI will officially launch the project and open a second community learning center in Freetown Polytechnic .

“Finder” refers to a young person that community members turn to for help when they have questions. “Finder” utilizes artificial intelligence and combines it with judgments based on adapting to the local environment; they review the results and provide practical solutions that can be used by vendors, farmers, or teachers.

This project is aimed at young people in Sierra Leone who, although meeting the qualifications to attend university, have not been able to secure a place to study. This includes young women, students with disabilities, as well as youths from rural areas or low-income families.

"Our young people know their own communities best," said Mustapha Turay, the person in charge of various centers in Sierra Leone. "I promised myself that no matter what education I received in the United States, I would bring it back to my country. We started from Kono, and now Freetown also has its own center."

In a one-year project, participants will handle consultations from local businesses and community groups and use artificial intelligence to find answers. The course is taught through the Agilix Dawn platform, which can continue to operate even when internet connectivity is interrupted. Thanks to this funding, the artificial intelligence tasks undertaken by the students will be run through Amazon Bedrock on AWS.

Agilix Labs, Co-Founder, President, and CEO Curt Allen stated: "The goal of establishing FLI is to help young people obtain employment opportunities, starting with those who are eager to learn but do not have the space to do so. In our centers, they use artificial intelligence to provide services for their communities. Finder is precisely the type of job role that we are training them for."

ActiveState cites a new study from Linux Foundation which states that 58% of teams are releasing code faster than the speed at which security reviews can follow up. 60% of respondents indicated that AI programming assistants have increased the number of external software packages in the codebase, but teams only review these packages' indirect dependencies about half of the time. The survey also shows that AI tools have helped to identify 30% of vulnerabilities over the past year and have increased the efficiency of security work by an average of 17%, however, false positives have also increased the workload for practitioners by 30%.
