  • AIJobsUAE Launches at Dubai AI Festival to Help Businesses Find Specialist AI Talent

    The UAE’s specialist AI talent platform combines curated listings, employer advisory and talent sourcing to help companies find the skills they actually need

    DUBAI, UAE, October 26th, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — AIJobsUAE, a UAE-based talent platform dedicated to AI careers and talent sourcing, launches today at Dubai AI Festival (26–27 October, Dubai World Trade Centre, Stand S17, Startup Zone).

    The challenge

    Companies increasingly need professionals who combine AI capability with deep domain expertise. Emerging roles such as AI Architects, Forward Deployed Engineers and AI-enabled Finance Specialists don’t fit traditional hiring.

    Generic job boards are built for volume, not specialisation. AI vacancies attract large numbers of applicants without the right mix of technical skills, industry knowledge and practical experience. Employers spend more time screening; qualified professionals struggle to find specialist roles.

    The challenge isn’t finding more candidates. It’s identifying the right capabilities and connecting them with the right opportunities.

    The AIJobsUAE approach

    1. Curated AI talent marketplace — AI-only opportunities and professionals, organised by specialist skills and roles, not generic categories.
    2. Employer AI talent advisory — affordable guidance to define emerging roles and identify the capabilities a business actually needs.
    3. Specialist talent sourcing — end-to-end support for critical AI roles, from understanding the business requirement to identifying, evaluating and connecting the right professionals.

    Founder’s view

    “Every company needs AI talent, but jobs are evolving faster than companies can keep up. Roles like AI Architects, AI-powered Finance Specialists and Forward Deployed Engineers demand a rare combination of domain expertise and AI skills. Generic job boards aren’t designed for this level of specialisation, leaving companies overwhelmed by irrelevant applications. AIJobsUAE isn’t just another AI talent platform. We use technology where it adds value, while recognising that finding the right talent requires human judgement. It starts with understanding the business, the technology and, most importantly, the people.” — Ryan D’Souza, Founder, AIJobsUAE

  • ZWAG AI Unveils the Center of Excellence for Linguistic Sovereignty at the Dubai AI Festival

    DUBAI, UAE, October 26, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — ZWAG AI today officially announced the launch of the Center of Excellence for Linguistic Sovereignty (CoE-LS) at the Dubai AI Festival.

    The digital future belongs to every language and not just a few. The launch of the CoE-LS marks a vital step toward securing cognitive sovereignty and digital equity for global language communities. Through its flagship linguistic intelligence platform, ZWAG AI is calling on global governments, universities, and incubators to join the mission to map missing linguistic structures, build comprehensive language profiles, and ensure every community’s digital autonomy in the age of artificial intelligence.

    Preserving Linguistic Integrity in Artificial Intelligence

    While today’s Large Language Models (LLMs) often appear fluent in widely spoken and regional languages—such as Thai, Tamil, Arabic, or Swahili—they routinely fail by breaking critical grammatical structures, cultural context, and formal registers that native speakers rely on.

    To bridge this gap, ZWAG AI developed Mātṛ, a model-agnostic correction layer that operates as AI trust and correctness infrastructure. Instead of requiring costly model retraining, Mātṛ models each language as a structured system, evaluates AI outputs against native typological rules, and selects or corrects the output in real time. The platform’s Translation Studio public beta currently supports 2,400+ languages.

    “We shouldn’t have to water down our native languages to fit a machine’s logic,” said Priya M. Nair, Co-founder and CEO of ZWAG AI. “Our mission is teaching AI to respect our heritage, our values, and our mother tongues; and it starts with getting the language right.”

    “AI does not fail people because it lacks intelligence. It fails them because it misreads the structure of their language,” said Nipuna Abeykoon, Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer at ZWAG AI. “Correctness, not fluency, is what earns trust.”

    A Global Call to Action for Governments, Institutions and Linguists

    The Center of Excellence for Linguistic Sovereignty serves as an institutional framework partnering with universities, cultural organizations, and regional governments to host Linguistics Excellence Centres. Academic institutions, professional translators, linguists, and native speakers are invited to contribute to building and refining native language profiles via the platform’s global contributor program at matrintelligence.com/platform/contribute.

  • Dr. Anna Nolin Highlights Human-Centered Leadership as Schools Navigate the Next Phase of Artificial Intelligence

    Newton, Massachusetts — October 25, 2026 — As artificial intelligence continues to influence teaching, learning, and school administration, Dr. Anna Nolin, Superintendent of Newton Public Schools, is emphasizing the importance of human-centered leadership in guiding its responsible use. Her approach focuses on preserving educator expertise, establishing clear expectations, protecting student information, and ensuring that technology supports the educational relationships at the heart of public schools.

    In her September 2026 article for School Business Now, “How Can School Business Officials Leverage AI Safely and Effectively? A Superintendent’s Perspective,” Nolin argues that school systems should begin by identifying the work that needs improvement rather than selecting an AI product first. She presents AI as a potential means of reducing repetitive administrative work and giving educators more time for instruction, collaboration, and engagement with students and families.

    For school leaders, this distinction places educational priorities ahead of technological novelty. AI tools may assist with drafting assessments, preparing communications, organizing information, and other administrative tasks, but their outputs require review by professionals who understand the context, responsibilities, and needs of their school communities.

    Keeping Educators at the Center of Innovation

    Nolin’s perspective reflects her broader experience in curriculum development, instructional leadership, technology integration, and district administration. Her professional background includes leading teaching and learning initiatives, supporting educator development, and overseeing educational innovation in both Natick and Newton, Massachusetts.

    In her recent writing, she describes an approach in which AI complements rather than replaces professional judgment. Technology can help educators begin a task, examine alternatives, or reduce time spent on repetitive work. Teachers must nevertheless remain responsible for instructional decisions and the learning experiences they design for students.

    This principle is particularly important when AI is used in assessment and instruction. Automated outputs may offer a useful starting point, but educators must evaluate their accuracy, relevance, fairness, and alignment with learning objectives before using them in the classroom.

    Establishing Clear Expectations for Students

    The question of AI use extends beyond administrative efficiency to academic integrity and student learning. In an August 2026 interview with NBC Boston, Nolin discussed the challenge facing schools as students encounter AI in education, higher education, and the workplace.

    Newton Public Schools has been revisiting its acceptable-use policy, with Nolin indicating that student participation would be part of the process. She has also emphasized the importance of teachers communicating when AI assistance is appropriate and when students are expected to complete work independently.

    Clear expectations help students understand the difference between using a tool to support their thinking and relying on it to do the thinking for them. They also give educators a more consistent foundation for designing assignments, explaining academic expectations, and teaching responsible technology use.

    Rather than treating AI as a question with a single answer for every classroom, this approach recognizes that appropriate use depends on the assignment, the learning objective, and the skills students are expected to develop.

    Responsible Adoption Requires Governance and Trust

    Human-centered AI leadership also involves decisions about privacy, procurement, cybersecurity, and accountability. In her School Business Now article, Nolin encourages school business officials and district leaders to examine how vendors protect student and staff data, use information to train their systems, monitor outputs for bias or inaccuracies, and respond to safety concerns.

    These considerations make AI adoption an organizational responsibility rather than simply a technology purchase. School systems need shared expectations, staff training, appropriate human review, and transparent communication with their communities.

    Nolin’s emphasis on collaboration is consistent with her wider work in district strategic planning and community engagement. Responsible implementation requires educators, administrators, technology professionals, business officials, students, and families to understand the goals of a proposed tool and the safeguards surrounding its use.

    Preparing Schools for a Changing Educational Landscape

    As superintendent of Newton Public Schools, Anna Nolin leads a district whose work encompasses teaching and learning, operational management, professional development, and student support. Her career has included curriculum modernization, personalized learning, STEM initiatives, and the development of technology-focused educational programs.

    Her perspective on AI builds on that experience while recognizing that successful implementation depends on more than access to new tools. Schools must determine where technology can provide practical value, prepare staff to use it responsibly, and evaluate whether it improves the work of educating students.

    The next phase of AI in education will require school leaders to balance experimentation with sound governance and clear educational purpose. For Nolin, the central consideration is how technology can support the people responsible for learning, relationships, and student development.

    As schools continue to evaluate emerging AI capabilities, a human-centered approach offers a practical leadership principle: technology should serve educational goals, reinforce professional expertise, and help schools devote their time and resources to students.

    About Dr. Anna Nolin

    Dr. Anna Nolin, Ed.D., is an educational leader and Superintendent of Newton Public Schools in Newton, Massachusetts. Her career spans classroom teaching, school administration, curriculum and instructional leadership, and district superintendency. Her professional interests include educational innovation, collaborative leadership, responsible technology integration, strategic planning, and educator development.

  • AVIP Lists on Binance and Explores Collaboration with Leading AI and Chip Technology Companies

    AVIP Announces Binance Listing, Exploring Synergies Between Computing Infrastructure and Large-Model Applications Through AI Agent Value Assessment and Incentive Pricing

    United States, 23rd Oct 2026 – AVIP recently announced its official listing on Binance, marking a milestone in its global market expansion. Building on this development, AVIP will continue to expand its international trading channels, with listings on additional major global digital asset trading platforms among its next-stage objectives, gradually broadening the project’s international reach.

    The listing provides more users with a new channel to learn about and participate in AVIP, while creating opportunities for the project to connect with communities interested in artificial intelligence, AI agent collaboration, and digital assets. As its market reach expands, AVIP will further improve its community engagement and developer participation mechanisms, promoting technical exchange, application exploration, and ecosystem collaboration.

    Alongside the expansion of its trading channels, AVIP will continue to explore AI agent value assessment and incentive pricing, focusing on synergies among computing infrastructure, large-model applications, and contribution allocation mechanisms. The project aims to gradually move its peer-to-peer intelligence marketplace from mechanism research toward validation in practical use cases.

    AVIP Explores a Development Path for an AI Agent Value Marketplace, Focusing on Synergies Between Computing Infrastructure and Large-Model Applications

    As artificial intelligence applications evolve from services provided by individual models toward collaboration among multiple agents, identifying the actual contributions of different agents and establishing incentive mechanisms aligned with service quality are becoming important areas of exploration. AVIP (Allocate Value, Incentivize Pricing) addresses this challenge by proposing an internet-based, peer-to-peer intelligence marketplace. Through participant evaluations, digital-ledger records, and economic incentives, the project seeks to explore ways to identify value and allocate contributions among intelligent systems.

    At the hardware level, potential collaboration between AVIP and leading chip technology companies could focus on GPU computing resources, node deployment, and cluster operating efficiency. An AI agent marketplace needs to continuously process task requests, generate model outputs, and evaluate the performance of different participants. As the number of participating nodes and the scale of tasks increase, computing throughput, response speed, video memory capacity, and communication efficiency between nodes will all affect the network’s service capabilities.

    The technical strengths of leading chip companies lie in GPU-accelerated computing and the supporting hardware and software ecosystem. Their GPUs, interconnect technologies, and related software can support large-model training and inference, providing infrastructure options for high-concurrency computing tasks. AVIP’s proposed value-assessment and incentive mechanisms could give these computing resources concrete application scenarios: nodes would provide services for real tasks, while the project explores how rewards could be allocated according to service performance.

    If the parties confirm a collaboration in the future, initial work could begin with node hardware compatibility, benchmarking, and small-scale pilots. These efforts would assess task-processing capacity, response latency, and cost per task under different configurations before any decision to expand deployment. For AVIP, this could strengthen the network’s capacity; for the technology ecosystem associated with leading chip companies, it could create a new use case for AI agent collaboration and distributed evaluation. At the large-model level, AVIP could explore collaboration with leading AI companies in model-service integration, task understanding, tool calling, and evaluation assistance. Function-calling mechanisms enable AI models to connect with external tools and data through applications, providing a technical pathway for building agents capable of carrying out specific tasks.

    Building on these capabilities, AVIP could explore converting user requirements into clearly structured tasks for different agents to process. For example, in information organization, content generation, or business workflow assistance, large models can help interpret task requirements, call external tools, and return results in specified formats. AVIP would focus on researching ways to record contributions and allocate incentives based on output quality, completion efficiency, and task suitability.

    The potential complementary value of such collaboration lies in connecting large-model capabilities with measurable task contributions. Model services from leading AI companies could support task understanding and execution, while AVIP’s proposed mechanisms would focus on answering two questions: which results are more valuable, and which participants should be rewarded.

    In designing the evaluation process, large models could serve as auxiliary tools, but reward allocation would still need to incorporate verifiable results, independent testing, and human spot checks to reduce the effects of model bias, collusive scoring, or deliberate score manipulation.

    Access to trading markets also affects participation channels within the AVIP ecosystem. More broadly, computing infrastructure, large-model services, and value-assessment mechanisms each address different needs: hardware supports task execution, large models support task understanding and execution, and AVIP explores how contributions can be recorded, compared, and allocated. If these three components work effectively together in pilot programs, they could help move the AI agent marketplace from conceptual validation toward practical application.

    A practical next step would be to test tasks with clearly defined scopes and verifiable outcomes, gradually evaluating node operating costs, model service quality, and reward rules before expanding developer participation and application coverage. For AVIP, establishing an intelligence marketplace that can operate continuously, deliver credible evaluations, and maintain traceable contribution records will be a key part of its development path.

  • Highst Urology Clinic Advances Male Intimate Health Care with 3rd-Generation Allograft Protocols

    Gangnam clinic advances customized male restorative procedures with dual-layer allograft matrices and specialized powder techniques to optimize dermal thickness and natural contouring.

    Seoul, South Korea, 23rd Oct 2026 – As medical tourism and patient demand for specialized male healthcare continue to evolve, South Korea’s aesthetic urology sector is increasingly shifting toward advanced, bio-compatible solutions tailored to individual patient anatomy. Highst Urology Clinic, located in Gangnam, Seoul, is at the forefront of this transition, refining surgical protocols through multi-dimensional application techniques.

    Rather than relying on standardized, single-material procedures, Highst Urology Clinic has developed its 3rd-Generation “Highst 2X Combination Surgery.” This technique integrates a dual-layer human allograft matrix with specialized allograft powder. Patient requirements for male restorative care vary significantly based on natural tissue elasticity, baseline anatomical contours, and specific aesthetic goals. To address these variations, the clinic offers customized surgical plans designed to achieve structural permanence alongside natural texture.

    While conventional dermal grafts typically offer a dermal thickness of 3–5 mm, the clinic’s dual-layer approach achieves an expanded dermal thickness of 6–10 mm. By layering two sheets of specially engineered premium allograft material and applying biological powder to minimize step-off effects at the edges, the surgical team delivers an expected post-operative circumference increase of 4–4.5 cm while preserving natural-looking contours and texture.

    “Modern male intimate health procedures require a sophisticated understanding of tissue integration and patient-specific anatomical balance,” stated Dr. Jinmo Koo, Chief Director of Highst Urology Clinic. “By developing 3rd-generation protocols that combine dual human allografts with specialized powder techniques, we can offer safer, highly individualized surgical options that meet elevated patient expectations.”

  • Scientology Volunteers Bring Human Rights Education to Madrid Streets Amid Housing Debate

    Volunteers from the Church of Scientology, Youth for Human Rights and Fundación MEJORA distribute educational materials on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as Spain’s capital faces renewed debate over housing, civic participation and fundamental freedoms.

    Brussels, Belgium, 22nd Oct 2026 — Volunteers associated with the Church of Scientology of Madrid, Youth for Human Rights and Fundación MEJORA, a Spanish foundation holding Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), have been taking human rights education directly to the streets of the Spanish capital, distributing informational booklets designed to help residents and visitors better understand the 30 articles of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

    voluntarios derechos humanos madrid final

    The initiative forms part of an international educational programme supported by the Church of Scientology, which uses printed materials, audiovisual resources and community outreach to explain fundamental rights in accessible language.

    The activity comes at a particularly relevant moment for Madrid, where public debate over housing, evictions and social protections has intensified following weeks of demonstrations and an ongoing protest encampment in Puerta del Sol, one of the city’s best-known public squares.

    Although the human rights education initiative is independent of the housing protests, both are taking place against a backdrop of heightened public attention to fundamental rights, civic participation and the responsibilities of democratic institutions.

    Bringing the Universal Declaration into Everyday Life

    The volunteers are distributing What Are Human Rights?, an educational booklet presenting the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 10 December 1948.

    The publication explains rights such as equality before the law, freedom of expression, freedom of thought and religion, peaceful assembly, education, and access to an adequate standard of living.

    Rather than focusing on a particular political issue, the educational campaign seeks to improve general awareness of the principles contained in the Declaration and their relevance to everyday situations.

    The programme is internationally led by Youth for Human Rights International and United for Human Rights, two educational initiatives supported by the Church of Scientology that provide resources for schools, community organisations, volunteers and individuals interested in human rights education.

    Their materials include printed booklets, teaching guides, the documentary The Story of Human Rights, and a series of 30 short public service announcements illustrating individual articles of the Declaration through situations intended to be understandable across different cultures and age groups.

    The emphasis on accessible educational materials reflects a broader challenge in human rights education: making internationally recognised principles understandable outside specialist legal and institutional settings.

    Madrid’s Housing Protests Bring Social Rights into Focus

    The distribution campaign coincides with an unusually visible debate over housing rights in Spain.

    Since 26 September, demonstrators have maintained an encampment in Madrid’s Puerta del Sol, a central square known internationally for its role in major civic mobilisations, including Spain’s 2011 protest movement.

    The protest has drawn attention to rising housing costs, access to affordable accommodation, eviction procedures and the responsibilities of public authorities. It has also prompted political and legal debate over the continued presence of demonstrators in one of Madrid’s principal public spaces.

    These developments provide a contemporary illustration of several principles contained in the Universal Declaration.

    Article 25 recognises the right of everyone to a standard of living adequate for their health and well-being, including housing, food, clothing, medical care and necessary social services.

    Articles 19 and 20 address freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, while Article 1 establishes the principle that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

    The Declaration itself is not a binding international treaty, but its principles have influenced subsequent international human rights agreements and constitutional frameworks, including those developed across Europe.

    The Scientology-supported educational campaign has as its main purpose to make the underlying human rights principles more widely understood, regardless of individual political positions.

    Human Rights Education and European Civic Values

    Across Europe, the protection of fundamental rights is embedded in institutions and legal frameworks such as the European Convention on Human Rights and the European Union’s Charter of Fundamental Rights.

    While these instruments differ in scope and legal application, they share principles with the Universal Declaration, particularly regarding human dignity, equality, fundamental freedoms and protection against discrimination.

    For civil society organisations engaged in public education, explaining these principles in accessible terms represents one way of contributing to informed civic participation.

    Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, connected the Madrid initiative with the wider European commitment to human rights.

    “Europe’s commitment to human dignity, fundamental freedoms and the rule of law cannot depend solely on institutions or legal texts. It also depends on citizens knowing their rights and respecting those of others. At times of intense public debate, human rights education helps provide a common foundation for civic participation, peaceful disagreement and mutual respect. Making these principles understandable and accessible is a practical contribution that volunteers can make to democratic life.”

    The Madrid campaign follows this educational approach by placing information directly in the hands of members of the public, rather than limiting awareness activities to conferences, classrooms or formal events.

    An International Programme with Local Participation

    Youth for Human Rights International was established in 2001 by educator Dr. Mary Shuttleworth, who grew up in South Africa during apartheid and became involved in educational efforts to increase awareness of fundamental freedoms.

    The initiative subsequently developed into an international programme, with educational materials designed for use in a variety of cultural and community settings.

    The Church of Scientology has supported the production and distribution of these resources, drawing on the interest in human rights expressed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.

    In a 1969 essay, Hubbard referred to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and argued for its implementation as a means of protecting individual freedoms and improving relations between governments and citizens.

    That emphasis became part of the Church’s subsequent support for humanitarian and educational initiatives, including campaigns addressing human rights awareness, drug prevention and community betterment.

    In Spain, the Church of Scientology has maintained a presence since the 1960s and opened its first church in 1980.

    Through its Madrid congregation and associated volunteers in numerous other Spanish cities, the Church continues to support community-based educational activities, including the distribution of human rights materials.

    The current initiative illustrates how an internationally developed educational programme can be applied at local level, reaching people in ordinary public spaces at a time when questions of dignity, social rights and democratic participation are prominent in public discussion.

    About the Church of Scientology in Europe

    Founded by L. Ron Hubbard, the Church of Scientology has churches, missions, affiliated groups and members throughout the European continent. Its communities support educational, preventive and humanitarian initiatives addressing human rights awareness, drug prevention, moral education and community betterment. Legal recognition of Scientology as a bona fide religion, and in certain jurisdictions as a charitable or public-benefit religious organisation, has developed through judicial and administrative decisions in several European countries. Its programmes emphasise education, prevention and voluntary participation in initiatives intended to benefit local communities.

  • From Karmayogi to the World Stage: Dr. Hemant Garg Wins “Excellence in AI for Public Policy”, Charts India’s Path to the AI Big League

    Civil servant, researcher and AI pioneer tells the 3rd World AI Summit, Bengaluru, that people-first, sovereign AI can make India a global AI leader

    Bengaluru, India, 16th October 2026, ZEX PR WIRE  — Dr. Hemant Garg, Deputy Director (Legal), Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (ESIC), Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, received the “Excellence in AI for Public Policy” award at the 3rd World AI Summit in Bengaluru on 14–15 October 2026, placing an Indian public-policy voice at the centre of the global debate on how AI should serve people.

    Dr. Garg described all of his work, from AI agents for government to AI-led labour law outreach, as an effort to help realise Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat@2047, under the leadership of Hon’ble Union Labour and Employment Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, whose Shramev Jayate reforms, Labour Codes and Ease of Doing Business drive set the direction. The goal, he said, is an Atmanirbhar Bharat in AI, built on a Bharat AI Stack: Indian large language models such as Sarvam, the Bhashini platform serving citizens in their own languages, and home-grown agents and talent under the IndiaAI Mission, taking India into the global AI league.

    Held with Digital India, the National e-Governance Division (NeGD) and the Karnataka Digital Economy Mission (KDEM) as partners in Bengaluru, India’s startup, IT and now AI capital, often called India’s Silicon Valley, the Summit was themed “AI for All: Accelerating India’s Journey Towards Inclusive, Responsible and Future-Ready AI”.

    The award honours his creation in 2023 of “IFSCA Karmayogi”, the first AI agent at the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA), GIFT City, and his research on AI in anti-money laundering, the Labour Codes and algorithmic management of gig workers.

    On the panel “AI for All – India’s Journey to a Sovereign, Inclusive AI Future”, with Shri Aman Mittal, IAS, Dr. BVRC Purushottam, IAS and Prof. (Dr.) T. G. Sitharam, former Chairman, AICTE, moderated by Dr. Ravi Gupta, Dr. Garg said inclusive AI must include the worker, and that India can blend Europe’s rights-based approach, US-style audits and Singapore’s skilling model through its Labour Codes, the DPDP Act and e-Shram.

    His keynote, “AI, Employment & Skills: Building a Future-Ready Workforce for India”, presented as “From Files to Foresight”, began with a worker disabled in an accident, or a family that has lost its breadwinner, whose care and pensions depend on ESIC, EPFO, the Ministry of Labour and Employment and the National Health Authority. “The true test of AI in government is how quickly that family receives its benefits, and whether it is treated with dignity on the way,” he said.

    He traced three waves of governance: e-Governance, which put paper online; Digital Governance, built on India’s digital public infrastructure; and now AI-enabled Intelligent Governance, where benefits reach eligible citizens without their having to apply.

    Dr. Garg propounded that AI will change tasks first, then jobs, then institutions and the workforce, and called for institutions for AI governance, impact assessment and exposure mapping to curb job attrition, support reskilling and compensate workers in transition. e-Shram, ESIC and EPFO, now reaching gig and platform workers, can extend social security to those left out, while indigenous models such as Sarvam and Bhashini can grow home-grown AI talent under the IndiaAI Mission.

    Government AI, he said, must be lawful, explainable and accountable; “a pattern is not proof”; and India must guard against a new colonisation “not by ships, but by servers”. He proposed “Five Ts”: Trust, Transparency, Talent, Thin and safe data, and Tested-then-scaled.

    An LLB, LLM and Ph.D., and an IIT Delhi CTO Programme alumnus with nearly two decades in public service, including Punjab’s Department of Cooperation, Dr. Garg has researched digital governance in governments and cooperatives extensively; his work is published internationally, taught in universities and presented at Oxford, Harvard and Cambridge.

    “Not artificial intelligence replacing governance, but intelligent governance that remains deeply human,” he concluded.

  • French Scientology Volunteers Take Drug Prevention from City Streets to Rural Communities

    Shop visits and public information stands bring a Scientology-supported education campaign to families in Paris, Marseille and south-western France.

    Brussels, Belgium, 15th Oct 2026 — Volunteers from Non à la drogue, Oui à la vie have distributed more than 16,000 drug-prevention booklets across France, working through neighbourhood shops, market squares and public information stands. In communities from Paris to Ariège, the visits have drawn requests for information from parents, students and people working with young people.

    The distributions are part of La vérité sur la drogue, the French-language version of The Truth About Drugs. The programme is supported by the Church of Scientology and its members and provides information about drugs for young people, families and educators.

    Journalistic reports have warned that cannabis, cocaine and heroin can now be obtained throughout France, including in rural areas. Traffickers have also used village roads to avoid checks on major routes, while clandestine laboratories have been dismantled on farms.

    In Tarn, volunteers delivered 3,100 booklets to dozens of businesses across several municipalities. Another team supplied 3,000 to approximately 50 shops in Arcachon. Hundreds more were distributed in two Bordeaux neighbourhoods, where some shopkeepers spoke about people they knew who had been affected by drugs.

    A team from Toulouse travelled to Ariège, distributing 3,000 booklets through local businesses. At a market square, a person working with a centre for young people with disabilities approached the volunteers to ask for resources for the centre.

    Around Clermont-Ferrand, volunteers returned to smaller municipalities in Puy-de-Dôme and left more than 1,200 booklets with local traders. At one bakery, the baker explained that secondary-school students came to collect the publications when the subject of drugs was being covered at school. Other traders and customers took copies for their children and asked about the effects of different substances.

    In Paris, a team distributed 5,100 booklets through businesses in the Oberkampf district. Shopkeepers welcomed the volunteers and asked for publications they could offer to customers concerned about substance use.

    In Marseille’s Notre-Dame du Mont district, volunteers set up an information stand, handed out 600 booklets and invited visitors to try simulation goggles intended to illustrate impaired perception associated with alcohol or cannabis. Young people tested the goggles, some with their parents beside them, and expressed surprise at the changes in perception. Parents thanked the volunteers for the demonstration.

    People involved in local associations also stopped by to speak about addiction in the city centre, raising concerns about substances including crack cocaine, heroin and nitrous oxide.

    Founded in 1991, Non à la drogue, Oui à la vie is a French nonprofit association recognised as serving the public interest and governed by the country’s 1901 law on associations. It works in partnership with the Foundation for a Drug-Free World, organising information stands, distributing publications and giving educational presentations. Its purpose is to help people understand drugs before they face a decision about using them.

    The Truth About Drugs materials include an overview booklet and publications on individual substances, including cannabis, alcohol, cocaine, synthetic drugs and prescription-drug misuse. Available in 23 languages, the booklets explain effects and risks and include accounts from people who have experienced drug use. Short public-service films accompany the series. In the documentary The Truth About Drugs: Real People, Real Stories, former users speak about addiction and its consequences in their own lives.

    For teachers and others working with pupils aged 11 and above, the French association provides kits containing a teaching manual, films, booklets and posters. Its online resources and podcasts include accounts from people affected by drugs and their relatives. The materials can be used in a lesson or group discussion, as well as read individually by a parent or young person.

    The Church of Scientology’s support for drug education stems from the concern expressed by its founder, L. Ron Hubbard, about the effects of drugs on people and society. The Church and Scientologists have supported the development and distribution of the secular Truth About Drugs programme, making it one of their longstanding social initiatives.

    Across Europe, illicit-drug availability remains high and the range of substances on the market is becoming more varied. The European Union Drugs Agency’s European Drug Report 2026 identifies increasingly complex risks, including potent substances consumed unknowingly in mixtures or tablets. It highlights prevention in families, schools and communities, stressing the importance of evidence-based interventions and quality standards.

    Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, said:

    “If a pupil can pick up a booklet at the local bakery and use it for a school discussion, prevention has become part of daily life. Parents and teachers need information they can use, and young people deserve straight answers.”

    The Church of Scientology, its missions, groups and members are present throughout the European continent, and its recognition as a charitable and bona fide religion continues to grow. Inspired by the work of L. Ron Hubbard, Scientologists support education, prevention and community-betterment initiatives, including drug education, human-rights awareness, ethical education and volunteer assistance.

  • EvoMap Publishes Skill to Gene Research Showing How AI Agents Can Keep Learning Across Runs

    EvoMap, the open infrastructure for AI self-evolution, outlines how its Genome Evolution Protocol (GEP) reflects arXiv:2604.15097. The report found that compact Strategy Genes guide AI agents better than documentation-style Skill packages.

    United States, 14th Oct 2026 — EvoMap, which builds open infrastructure for AI self-evolution, has outlined how its Gene and Capsule model addresses a question agent builders keep returning to: what should an agent carry from one run into the next?

    EvoMap Publishes Skill to Gene Research Showing How AI Agents Can Keep Learning Across Runs

    Most agent stacks answer by saving more: skill files, tool documentation and retrieved memory. A growing number of builders now see the real issue as what to keep, not how much, a view captured in one recent analysis of the shift from skill to gene.

    What the Report Found

    That question is at the center of a beta technical report, “From Procedural Skills to Strategy Genes: Towards Experience-Driven Test-Time Evolution” (arXiv:2604.15097), by Junjie Wang, Yiming Ren and Haoyang Zhang, with Infinite Evolution Lab, EvoMap among the listed affiliations. Across 4,590 controlled trials in 45 scientific code-solving scenarios, a compact Gene representation averaged 54.0%, against 49.9% for a full documentation-style Skill package.

    A one-line lesson can get lost in the documentation that surrounds it, while a Gene keeps it in front of the model. Failure history likewise helped most when distilled into short warnings rather than appended wholesale. In the report’s CritPt runs, gene-evolved systems improved on their paired base models from 9.1% to 18.57% and from 17.7% to 27.14%.

    From Research to Practice

    EvoMap’s Genome Evolution Protocol (GEP) applies a similar structure. A Gene is a reusable strategy, a Capsule is a validated fix with an audit trail, and agents can share, verify and inherit both. Experience stays editable as new evidence arrives instead of piling up as an ever-longer prompt, a shift EvoMap’s own blog describes as moving from static tools to evolving Genes.

    “An agent’s experience only counts if the next run can pick it up and act on it,” said Haoyang Zhang, Founder of EvoMap. “Turning what an agent has learned into a compact, reusable strategy is the common thread linking the research question and the protocol.”

    Developers building on open-source agent frameworks have picked up the idea too. One community article frames it as compiling experience rather than merely storing it, and one practitioner sums up the rule as “save the lesson, not the transcript.” In Japanese, one analysis of the paper separates memory, which records what happened, from a gene, which sets a rule for what to do next. Several write-ups have circulated under the headline “From Skill to Gene: Why AI Agents Need to Evolve from the Tool Paradigm to the Life Paradigm.”
