The vast brainpower of IBM's supercomputer Watson is to be utilised in Africa to attempt to solve some of the continent's most pressing problems.
Better agriculture, education and health are just three of the improvements the system could bring, said the firm.
Watson uses artificial intelligence to analyse huge amounts of data and can also understand human language.
Experts said such a system could help the African economy "leapfrog" others.
The project dubbed, Lucy, after the earliest known human ancestor fossil which was found in east Africa, will cost $100m (£61m) and take 10 years to complete.
Uyi Stewart, chief scientist of IBM Research in Africa, told the BBC that the system could transform education and health in the same way as mobile banking had transformed finance on the continent.
