Startup Grind Asmara, in collaboration with Atena Vision Ltd, launches AI Education Month 2025, a four-week program themed “AI Literacy for Kids, Early Youth, Parents, and Adults.” The series empowers the Eritrean diaspora to understand and use AI through interactive sessions on Engaging with AI, Creating with AI, Managing AI, and Designing AI, connecting technology with education and human development.
In week 2 of AI Education Month – Creating with AI, we will cover the topic, From Chatbots to Agents: How AI Is Reshaping Everyday Life and How You Can Use It Effectively. This engaging session with Tesfagabir Meharizghi, Applied Scientist at the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, takes participants on a journey from simple chatbots to the emerging world of intelligent AI agents that plan, decide, and act. Together, we’ll explore how these technologies are transforming how families, schools, and communities interact with technology—and how to use them wisely. Expect practical guidance on co-creating with AI tools, verifying AI answers, setting healthy boundaries, and fostering children’s authentic voices while integrating AI safely and effectively into daily life.
