“The UAE’s push to develop Arabic language AI is a major step forward for the region. It shows real vision in building tech that speaks our language, reflects our values, and taps into the power of regional collaboration.
AI is no longer just something in the cloud or behind a screen. It’s becoming real, embedded in devices that see, think, and then act. These systems are powering services, responding to our needs, and shaping how we live and work. This shift makes it even more important that the tools we use understand our way of thinking and communicating.
What’s exciting is that it also opens the door to stronger cooperation across the Gulf. There’s a real opportunity to build a shared AI ecosystem, shaped by our combined skills and experience.”
