Exploring the UAE’s AI Ambitions: A Ground-Level Perspective
Last week in the UAE, I joined an American delegation to uncover the country’s burgeoning AI potential, reminiscent of my days in the Obama administration. Here’s what I found:
- Key Meetings: Engaged with decision-makers across capital, government, and tech sectors.
- Stargate UAE: Home to a mega data center, it’s pivotal in shaping the US-China AI relationship.
- A Pragmatic Approach: The UAE is not neutral; it actively aligns with the US in AI development.
Why This Matters:
- With 1.5 million construction workers and ambitious goals, the UAE is quickly becoming a tech powerhouse.
- The country’s unique position can influence AI policies globally, providing a strong counterbalance in US-China dynamics.
I encourage you to explore the implications of my findings further. Let’s discuss how these developments could impact the future of AI! 💬
