  The advances of Generative AI models with interactive capabilities over the
past few years offer unique opportunities for socioeconomic mobility. Their
potential for scalability, accessibility, affordability, personalizing and
convenience sets a first-class opportunity for poverty-stricken countries to
adapt and modernize their educational order. As a result, this position paper
makes the case for an educational policy framework that would succeed in this
transformation by prioritizing vocational and technical training over academic
education in sub-Saharan African countries. We highlight substantial
applications of Large Language Models, tailor-made to their respective cultural
background(s) and needs, that would reinforce their systemic decolonization.
Lastly, we provide specific historical examples of diverse states successfully
implementing such policies in the elementary steps of their socioeconomic
transformation, in order to corroborate our proposal to sub-Saharan African
countries to follow their lead.
