The newly established council will develop and implement artificial intelligence policies applied to research, infrastructure and investments.
United Arab Emirates president and ruler of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, has issued a law that established the Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Technology Council (AIATC).
According to an announcement from the Abu Dhabi government, the council will oversee the implementation and development of artificial intelligence (AI) policies and strategies that will be applied to research, infrastructure and investments.
Apart from policies, the council will also collaborate with local and global partners in developing plans and research programs. This aims to “enhance Abu Dhabi’s status” in the AI field. The move also matches the emirate’s efforts to become a hub for investments, partnerships and talent in the advanced technology sector.
