00:02:56Governorate, one a new language for education
00:02:57of continuity also. and a bridge that takes students towards horizons
00:03:00of creativity and innovation. Within its cultural plan, the Sultan Qaboos Higher Center
00:03:04for Culture and Science, represented by the Libraries Department at
00:03:07the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, organized a training lecture
00:03:11titled "Artificial Intelligence and Its Role in School
00:03:14Education," targeting school students in a step
00:03:18that reflects the interest in qualifying a generation
00:03:22that possesses the tools of the future and keeps pace with the accelerating technological revolution.
00:03:25Today's workshop was about artificial intelligence and its role
00:03:28in school education.
00:03:30The children were very interactive and enthusiastic, especially
00:03:34affect it. Can when we started brainstorming, that before they start
00:03:37using artificial intelligence tools, they must have
00:03:41ready ideas so that they don't just rely
00:03:44entirely on artificial intelligence tools. So
00:03:48first they should use
00:03:51The number of
00:03:51this trending "Pulse" their ideas and use artificial intelligence
00:03:53tools to refine their skills. The lecture reviewed artificial
00:03:58to learn intelligence concepts and its applications in the educational environment
00:04:01and its role in creative thinking and transforming the educational
00:04:06largely useless process from indoctrination to interaction and production,
00:04:09which reinforces the culture
00:04:11push the content of innovation and gives students the ability to employ technology in building knowledge
00:04:14and creating meaningful content. Hala Al-Rawahi enjoyed this
00:04:18workshop and is happy with what she achieved with her colleagues
00:04:22here. I enjoyed it a lot. I made
00:04:24sweet stories and I made a
00:04:27story. I saw in the movie I saw
00:04:32in a larger and three lost girls in the sea. Omaran
00:04:34this initiative makes it the second country in Al-Saadi also told us about his awareness of
00:04:37the importance of artificial intelligence and how he benefited
00:04:40from it in his lessons. For example, we use artificial
00:04:44intelligence to study and, for example,
00:04:47solve homework
00:04:50and advertisements, etc. We benefit from artificial intelligence. Here,
00:04:56recommendation algorithms currently Abdullah Al-Balushi aspires to create high-quality videos using artificial
00:04:59intelligence. Today, I came
00:05:02mere material for here to benefit
00:05:05from
00:05:10continuous development detect them before space may lose the AI workshop and how to program videos. And I will benefit
00:05:14more from it in the future. As for Hind Al-Zadjali,
00:05:18she considers artificial intelligence a helpful
00:05:21factor in reducing effort and time if used correctly.
00:05:24Honestly, AI is very beautiful. It helps
00:05:31and homework. It's also very
00:05:34beautiful and helps us save time and effort.
00:05:38Noor Al-Rawahi also expressed her enjoyment of the workshop
00:05:41and advises those her age to attend such
00:05:44courses. I learned a lot about AI.
00:05:48It's fun and beautiful. I learned about
00:05:51ChatGPT, Gina My,
00:05:54and Canva. It was a lot of
00:05:57fun and I benefited a lot from it. Ahmed
00:06:01Al-Salty, a story writer, was helped by ChatGPT
00:06:04in organizing his stories, which highlight the Omani identity.
00:06:08Today, I learned from AI that it can
00:06:12do a lot, and I learned that
00:06:15I can, for example, put a thousand stories
00:06:18into AI and get them
00:06:22format. Al-Qasim Al-Saadi also learned from the course
00:06:26how to differentiate between natural images and those
00:06:29that have been subjected to artificial intelligence. This promotes
00:06:32safe and responsible use of AI technologies,
00:06:35fosters creative thinking, and encourages students
00:06:39to produce meaningful digital content and transform ideas into practical
00:06:43projects that enhance their confidence in their capabilities
00:06:46and creativity. Khadija Bint Suleiman Al-Shehhi, Governor of Muscat.

00:06:54you will follow us. Innovative projects and ideas
00:06:58for Omani products at the First Manufacturers
00:08:11Exhibition in North Al Batinah Governorate.
00:08:25Welcome. Between the pursuit of views
00:08:29and the desire to provide meaningful content,
00:08:32publishing methods vary on social media platforms
00:08:35amid increasing competition to attract
00:08:38interaction and reach the largest segment of the audience.
00:08:42While some are accustomed to providing content that
00:08:46enriches knowledge and promotes dialogue,
00:08:49other accounts resort to methods based on excitement
00:08:52and controversy, which raises questions about the impact
00:08:56of these practices on the digital content environment and its implications
00:09:00for talented
00:09:04people and initiatives. A title that arouses curiosity,
00:09:08or a question that carries a certain suggestion,
00:09:11or a video presented in a way
00:09:14that drives followers to ridicule or make judgments.
00:09:17As soon as comments pour in,
00:09:21platform algorithms
00:09:24to further spread, because the volume
00:09:28of interaction has become, for them, an indicator
00:09:30of the content's importance,
00:09:33regardless of its nature. A method used by
00:09:37some accounts to increase interaction
00:09:40is prevalent on many social
00:09:44media platforms.
00:09:46However, its impact extends deeply to
00:09:50talented individuals, initiatives, and positive
00:09:53ideas. Many of them hesitate before
00:09:57publishing their content, not out of fear
00:10:00of objective criticism, but rather out of fear
00:10:03of a wave of sarcastic or offensive comments
00:10:07that may overshadow the content they present,
00:10:10turning achievement and diligence into
00:10:14bullying instead of appreciation.
00:10:17Over time, the digital
00:10:20many inspiring stories and successful
00:10:24experiences, not because they do not exist,
00:10:28but because their owners prefer silence over
00:10:31facing electronic bullying. Here, the loss
00:10:34turns from an individual loss
00:10:37to a societal loss, when the social
00:10:40media environment becomes less encouraging
00:10:44of creativity and more prone
00:10:47to creating controversy. At a time when
00:10:50social media platforms have become part of our
00:10:54daily lives and an influential
00:10:56space in shaping public opinion,
00:11:02promote a digital culture based
00:11:04on responsibility and respect, so that interaction
00:11:08is a tool for building dialogue
00:11:12and exchanging knowledge, not a means
00:11:15of achieving spread at the expense
00:11:19of others. Views may create temporary fame,
00:11:23but responsible content
00:11:30is the only one capable of creating
00:11:33a lasting impact. To talk more about
00:11:36social media algorithms, we are joined
00:11:39by phone Hassan bin Ali Al-Ajmi,
00:11:42a cybersecurity and crisis
00:11:45management specialist. Welcome. First,
00:11:48why are social media algorithms
00:11:51attracted to controversial content more than meaningful
00:11:56content? And how can users break
00:11:59this equation? Good evening to the esteemed
00:12:02viewers and listeners across various platforms.
00:12:06The truth is that algorithms do not
00:12:09break this. Algorithms in general are shaped
00:12:13by the level of interaction
00:12:16users, and this point is very
00:12:19important because much of the discussion
00:12:22revolves around algorithms and their role
00:12:25and goals, etc. However, algorithms essentially
00:12:29depend on the level of interaction they
00:12:32receive from users. And naturally, for the algorithm
00:12:36to publish content and enhance its presence
00:12:40and spread it to a wider audience,
00:12:43whether followers or non-followers, it depends
00:12:47on the level of interaction itself.
00:12:50That is, in other words, if
00:12:52I publish content
00:12:55and get quick comments and shares
00:12:59of this content, then naturally its
00:13:02spread will be faster than other content.
00:13:07the important point in the matter. The
00:13:11other important point in the matter, which
00:13:14algorithms learn and also begin to raise
00:13:18the ranking of the account, is the issue
00:13:22That is, the more
00:13:26you continue to publish content, whether it
00:13:29is purposeful or abusive, your continuity
00:13:32in publishing this content also creates
00:13:36ease in reaching what is called
00:13:39"explore" or what is called "trending"
00:13:42content. I don't know the term exactly,
00:13:46but it's like the trending content
00:13:50that appears to the public in a
00:13:54larger way. All of these things
00:13:59we break this?
00:14:00Can we do
00:14:03something? Yes, there are many content
00:14:06creators today who produce purposeful,
00:14:10good, and useful content. We see
00:14:13them appear in
00:14:16category, or content that
00:14:19is published and exchanged, etc.,
00:14:22regardless of the strong competition with
00:14:26accounts that publish inappropriate, bad, and
00:14:31content. Why do algorithms prefer
00:14:34accounts with interaction? Because, unfortunately,
00:14:37through comments or through shares, a large
00:14:40number of people interact with humorous
00:14:44content or offensive content or content
00:14:47that fundamentally involves defamation or insults,
00:14:50etc. Because comments are received and replies
00:14:54to comments are made
00:14:57larger way, and this raises the content's
00:15:01ranking and spreads it more widely
00:15:04across platforms. Yes, but yes,
00:15:08this is the goal. It's not
00:15:11the algorithms. It's user interaction
00:15:15that creates this. So how do
00:15:21contribute to accelerating the spread of deepfakes
00:15:25and fabricated news? How can
00:15:28cybersecurity specialists
00:15:32they turn into a public opinion
00:15:36crisis? Well, in fact, this has
00:15:39become very difficult today, very difficult.
00:15:42Because even official media or traditional
00:15:46media, such as television channels
00:15:49or news agencies, have fallen into
00:15:52this trap many times, and we have
00:15:56seen many incidents repeat in this
00:15:59regard. Today, deepfakes have become very
00:16:02difficult due to the many tools
00:16:04available that have become so sophisticated
00:16:08that they can even falsify features.
00:16:11The quality of fake content has
00:16:15become very high. However,
00:16:17self-monitoring or self-awareness remains
00:16:21from the user or follower or
00:16:25analyst themselves, in that they should
00:16:30official sources rather than following unofficial
00:16:35accounts, or those that are
00:16:38not widely known. Because
00:16:42the level of counterfeiting has reached
00:16:45very difficult stages. There
00:16:48are technical tools and methods that
00:16:51can be used to detect the
00:16:55level of counterfeiting
00:16:58video is fake, etc., through
00:17:02technical and artistic tools, etc. These
00:17:06are often used by brothers in
00:17:09forensic laboratories
00:17:11and other details.
00:17:14Yes, so Hassan bin Ali
00:17:18Al-Ajmi, a cybersecurity and crisis
00:17:20management specialist, thank you very
00:17:24much. The First Manufacturers'
00:17:27Exhibition in North Al Batinah Governorate

00:18:57starting point for them within the
00:19:00rest of the Sultanate
00:19:03and also outside the Sultanate, God
00:19:06willing. The idea of the Manufacturers'
