AI and Blockchain Technologies Deployed for Health, Construction, and Fund Transparency - November 2025

The University of Melbourne has spearheaded research to develop DT-GPT, an AI tool capable of creating "digital twins" of patients to accurately predict their future health trajectories. In Kenya, the construction sector has launched SmartBuild AI, the country's first AI-powered platform designed to accurately estimate building costs and boost transparency. Separately, the World Bank is deploying blockchain technology within Kenya's National Youth Opportunities Towards Advancement (NYOTA) Project. This deployment is intended to guarantee that funds reach their intended beneficiaries, thereby enhancing transparency and accountability.
