Karachi Launches Pakistan’s First AI Teacher
A private school in Karachi has introduced Pakistan’s first AI-powered teacher, setting a new benchmark in education.
Named Ainee, the AI teacher is deployed at a school in Gulshan-e-Iqbal. Ainee assists grade 5 students in subjects like mathematics, science, and languages.
The AI teacher answers student queries, monitors academic progress, and tailors lessons to individual learning paces. This initiative combines advanced artificial intelligence with classroom teaching to provide a personalized learning experience.
This breakthrough aligns with Pakistan’s growing focus on AI integration across various sectors. The federal government plans to unveil its first AI policy by early 2025.
The policy will focus on strengthening cybersecurity, enabling real-time detection of cyber threats, and preventing data breaches. It will also support the digital economy and Pakistan’s vision of becoming a “Digital Pakistan.”
The AI policy aims to improve Pakistan’s ranking in global cybersecurity. Currently in the top 40 of the Global Cybersecurity Index 2024, Pakistan aspires to move into the top 10-15.
Syed Junaid Imam, Member IT at the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecom, emphasized the policy’s focus on cybersecurity. He stated, “AI is crucial for ensuring secure cyberspace.”
