Editor's Note: The next in the long series of faiV experiments—we're going to start sending it out on Mondays rather than Fridays for a bit. That gives me more time on Friday to assemble and write without it coming out well past the start of Asia/Europe weekends. We'll see how that goes on my side and on the opening/clicking side for a few weeks and then, who knows?
And just in case you need a reminder of a some good news, the cheaper of the new malaria vaccines is starting to be deployed in Ivory Coast today.

Editor’s Note: I’m going to assume that you are seeing plenty of AI content (news and papers, not AI slop, though I’m sure you’re getting plenty of that too) from other sources, so I’m trying to think hard about the marginal value that the faiV can provide. As far as I’ve gotten so far: a) make sure that directly AI-related content does not take up more than 2 of the 5 items, and b) try to focus specifically on the cybersecurity issue for financial inclusion. Beyond that, I’m open to feedback on the value you get from the faiV in relation to AI to help guide us in the future. On a different note, I’ll be making a brief cameo appearance at the e-MFP Inclusive Finance Conference to moderate the opening plenary. If you haven’t registered, do so and I hope to see you there! - Tim Ogden
