This research investigated effective features of including artificial intelligence (AI) in the 8th grade science curriculum in the Sultanate of Oman. It was an endeavor to know the effectiveness of applying AI applications in education and the educational strategies on which the science curriculum is based. Its population included all staff dealing with the 8th grade textbook of public education schools in Oman. Sixty participants formed the study sample, which was randomly selected and an e-questionnaire was designed. The results emphasized the effective role of using AI in increasing the level of performance in learning science. Moreover, there was a moderate improvement in teachers’ performance and a high improvement in the educational strategies. Most importantly, there were no obvious differences at 0.05 in the experts’ agreement concerning the application of AI in the 8th grade science curriculum in the Sultanate of Oman as a function of occupation, with teachers achieving greater scores. This point reflects that teachers are more agreeing concerning the application of AI in the 8th grade science curriculum.
