Adaptasyon: En büyük çöküşümüz mü? | Sulaiman Adewale | TEDxOsogbo

Sulaiman Adewale, WhatsApp içinde çalışan yapay zeka destekli sohbet bankacılığı asistanı Xara'nın kurucusu. Konuşmasında en büyük riskin eskimiş teknoloji değil, yalnızca işe yarayan sistemlere alışmak olduğunu savunuyor. Arayüzsüz bir bankacılığın, kullanıcının zaten konuştuğu dilde bir sohbetten ibaret olabileceğini ele alıyor. Konuşma, bağımsız olarak düzenlenmiş bir TEDx etkinliğinde yapıldı.

• İşe yarayan ama yetersiz sistemlere alışmanın riski
• WhatsApp içinde çalışan Xara asistanı
• Pidgin, Yorubaca ve Hausaca dillerinde destek

What would banking look like with no interface at all, just a conversation in whatever language you already speak? This talk argues that our biggest risk isn't outdated technology; it's how comfortable we get with things that merely work. It challenges us to stop managing what's broken and start fixing it. Sulaiman Adewale is the founder of Xara, Africa's first AI-powered conversational banking assistant, built entirely inside WhatsApp. A self-taught software engineer from Osogbo, Osun State, he spent over a decade in software architecture before building Xara out of personal frustration: he found that even simple banking tasks meant fighting an interface that wasn't built for him. Rather than adapt to broken systems the way most of us quietly learn to, he asked what banking would look like with no interface at all, just a conversation, in whatever language a user already speaks, from Pidgin to Yoruba to Hausa. Launched in 2025, Xara now serves over sixty thousand users and has drawn interest from major financial and technology players, including xAI. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
