Pakistan Approves National Artificial Intelligence Policy
Pakistan has taken a major step toward digital transformation with the approval of its National Artificial Intelligence Policy in July 2025. This policy sets out a six-pillar roadmap—spanning health, education, agriculture, governance, and public awareness—to build an AI ecosystem that supports innovation and addresses future challenges. Key targets include training up to one million professionals by 2030, providing thousands...
Game-Changing AI for Patient Care
Could AI help doctors detect hidden signs of consciousness in coma patients—saving lives sooner? A new AI tool is being used to find signs of awareness in patients who doctors thought were unreachable. It spots these signals days before traditional methods, offering hope and guiding urgent medical decisions for families. AI in patient care isn’t just science fiction. Families...
China’s Brain-Like AI Model
What if computers could think like a human brain—faster and more accurately than ever before? In China, researchers claim to have developed an AI model inspired by the human brain. It operates 100 times faster than current systems, combining speed with smarter problem-solving. Applications range from advanced robots to self-driving cars and new smart city services. With this leap,...

Apple’s latest innovation features the powerful A19 chip, bringing lightning-fast AI directly to users. Unique to this model, live translation and smart features happen entirely on the phone—keeping privacy at...
Paper Chips: A Sustainable Answer to Rising E-Waste
Global e-waste is mounting rapidly, fueled by mass consumer electronics use. But a breakthrough from German researchers could change that trajectory: fully biodegradable paper-based chips that can process small amounts of data and dissolve in water after use. How It Works Researchers print circuits onto cellulose paper using conductive ink. The resulting chip performs simple functions—such as temperature logging or sensor...
India’s Moon Mining Dream: The Next Space Gold Rush
India’s space program is gaining global attention, not just for exploration but for commercial ambition. India’s government and private partners are now openly targeting lunar mining, with a spotlight on rare earth metals and helium-3, a potential clean energy source. Why the Moon? The Moon’s surface is rich in materials crucial for electronics manufacturing, from neodymium to yttrium. In addition, helium-3,...
Renewable Energy Storage: The Solid-State Sodium Battery Revolution
For renewable energy to replace fossil fuels fully, storage remains the missing link. Wind turbines and solar farms produce energy intermittently, but until now, batteries were limited in both lifespan and safety. This is beginning to change thanks to the unveiling of a solid-state sodium-ion battery by a Chinese startup—capable of lasting over 30,000 cycles. Why Sodium Matters Lithium-ion batteries dominate...
Bollywood’s Digital-First Turn: Reinventing Release Windows
Bollywood is recalibrating its playbook. Mid-budget dramas, thrillers, and comedies increasingly opt for direct-to-streaming or short theatrical windows before platform premieres. The result is a wider global reach, improved ROI predictability, and creative freedom to tell riskier stories. Big-screen spectacles still command cinemas, but digital-first has become a credible, sometimes preferable, path to success. Why this shift took hold Economics: Marketing...
Microplastics in Human Bloodstream: A Silent Health Crisis
We’ve long known plastics choke oceans and enter our food chain, but scientists have now confirmed microplastics can flow inside human blood vessels. This shocking discovery connects environmental pollution directly to human health, raising red flags for medicine and policy worldwide. The Discovery Using advanced nanotechnology filters and spectroscopy, researchers detected plastic fragments smaller than 10 microns coursing through the blood....
