The strategy to achieve this goal is divided into 8 objectives:
1) Build a reputation as an AI destination
2) Increase the UAE's competitive assets in priority sectors through the deployment of AI
3) Develop a fertile ecosystem for AI
4) Adopt AI across customer services to improve lives and government
5) Attract and train talent for future jobs enabled by AI
6) Bring world-leading research capability to work with target industries
7) Provide the data and supporting infrastructure essential to become a test bed for AI
8) Ensure strong governance and effective regulation
All these points are detailed in the National Report: https://lnkd.in/e3r6NXAu

In 4 words: Formation, Research, Education & Regulation
