The UAE Cabinet has formed a council for artificial intelligence (AI) that will oversee AI integration in government departments and the education sector. The ten-member UAE Council for Artificial Intelligence will be chaired by Omar Al Olama, the 27-year-old who was appointed Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence in October's Cabinet reshuffle. The council includes representatives from every emirate. The council will identify how and where AI can be incorporated in government, what supporting infrastructure it requires and investigate its incorporation at different levels of education. The formation of the AI council was one of five themes outlined in the government's AI strategy launched last October.
