UAE Introduces AI Education in Schools Starting 2026

Little kids will learn about AI through fun, visual activities. Older students will learn how AI works, such as how it uses data and algorithms (which are like step-by-step instructions). They will also learn about the good and bad sides of AI, including how to use it responsibly and ethically. By the time they finish school, students will be able to design their own AI projects and solve real-world problems using AI. The UAE wants to prepare kids for the future, where AI will be everywhere-in jobs, technology, and daily life. Learning AI early will help children understand this new technology and use it in smart and safe ways.

Meet the “Hell Ant”: Oldest Ant Fossil Ever Found from Dinosaur Times

admin

Scientists discovered a very old fossil of a strange ant called a “hell ant” that lived about 113 million years ago, during the time of the dinosaurs. This is the oldest ant fossil ever found! The fossil was found at the Museum of Zoology of the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil and was preserved in rock called limestone. These hell ants had scary-looking jaws shaped like scythes (curved blades) that they probably used to catch and hold their prey. This type of ant is different from ants we see today. They lived a long time ago and were spread across many parts of the world, including Brazil, France, and Myanmar.

It is estimated that this snake may have lived 47 million years ago and it may have been longer than a Trex. It is also believed that the snake was around 15m long. Because of its size, it may have been a “slow-moving ambush predator”, similar to an anaconda. The newly discovered snake species has been named “Vasuki Indicus” (V. Indicus) after the mythical snake round the neck of the Hindu deity Shiva.
