Energize The Middle Eastern Economy With Artificial Intelligence: AI Is Changing How Government Operates

Energize The Middle Eastern Economy With Artificial Intelligence: AI Is Changing How Government Operates:

AI is revolutionizing several sectors of the economy, from banking and investing to medical diagnosis. GCC countries have begun embracing AI as a method to advance their own national objectives. With significant corporations embracing AI and developing groundbreaking applications, the industry is steadily climbing to prominence in the region’s economy. With the help of AI, governments in the Middle East may save up to $7 billion every year, as estimated by Oliver Wyman.

Artificial intelligence has the potential to revolutionize and speed up a wide range of public services, from citizens’ contact with the government to the delivery of infrastructure and healthcare, all while lowering associated costs significantly. Qatar’s government has capitalized on artificial intelligence by establishing an AI Center of Excellence, aiming to create cutting-edge AI applications and empower the AI government.

Dubai AI: Investing Billions Of Dollars In The Economy

Dubai sees the most significant economic benefit from artificial intelligence. Dubai is at the forefront of smart cities, having implemented two public service chatbots, Rashid and Mahboub. In addition, Saudi Arabia has demonstrated with its innovative AI projects that the Kingdom’s vision heavily relies on artificial intelligence. In the form of Sophia, the world’s first civilian robot, KSA has a technological head start. They are also constructing NEOM, a futuristic metropolis where robots dominate humans.

Artificial Intelligence For Government: Three Key Applications That Are Assisting AI Government

  • Superior Governmental Assistance

Residents frequently deal with government entities to accomplish routine activities, and their interactions with these institutions often result in complaints about the organizations’ slowness, poor quality, and unfair treatment of individuals. The Middle Eastern government uses chatbots and virtual assistants with built-in next-best-action systems to provide individualized service recommendations based on a user’s unique characteristics.

  • Public Policies That Put The Interest Of The People First

An AI government is empowered to design its own policies. Therefore, it may take preventative measures before deciding on a specific policy. To better meet people’s demands, the policymaking process may be aided by analyzing social media sentiment and drawing conclusions from people’s emotions.

  • Empowering Public Sector Workers To Concentrate On Human-Centric Activities

Integrating AI-based solutions into administrative workflows frees government workers to focus on more strategic and creative activities. Artificial intelligence enables government workers to devote their time and energy to actions that can only be done effectively by people, such as social interaction, analytical issue-solving, and creative decision-making.

AI And The Future: An AI-Driven Region

The prospects of AI and the future of middle eastern countries are bright. The United Arab Emirates has released it’s Artificial Intelligence Strategy 2031 to attract AI-related businesses and top talent. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) stands to benefit the most from artificial intelligence in the region by 2030, with a projected contribution of about $100 billion. Further, the artificial intelligence (AI) that powers Saudi Arabia’s $500 billion NEOM sprawling city integrates robots into every area of human life, from transportation to healthcare.
