Bill Gates to give most of his fortune to Africa
Microsoft founder Bill Gates has pledged to give 99 percent of his fortune to charity, primarily to improve health and education in Africa. In a speech in Addis Ababa, he singled out artificial intelligence as a priority, using it to reduce maternal and child mortality, reduce infectious diseases and end poverty.
According to Forbes, Gates' fortune is expected to reach $115.1 billion in 2025 and could reach $200 billion by 2045. The initiative comes as the US government is cutting health programs in Africa.
