United Arab Emirates: Smart Push
February 6, 2020
DarkCyber works from a ramshackle cabin in a hollow in rural Kentucky. Most of those in my vicinity are not sure what a “UAE” is and may not be able to locate it on a map. United Arab Emirates is a nation state with money and a desire to embrace smart technology.
DarkCyber recommends “UAE’s push for AI” for a reasonable summary of the country ambitions for artificial intelligence infused methods. The article states:
the UAE has a clear strategy, AI Strategy 2031, and has appointed a Ministry of AI to oversee its goals and objectives. The strategy outlines the need for AI to be deployed across key sectors such as logistics, healthcare, education and so on. The overall objective of UAE’s push towards AI is to transform the UAE economy to become transparent, paperless and automated.
The write up is not comprehensive; for example, it omits the country’s interest in intelware and its use of technology from the likes of Amazon and other interesting companies.
