His Excellency Omar Sultan Al Olama, Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence, stressed that advanced technology and Artificial Intelligence are key tools for humanity. Al Olama also highlighted the importance of adopting these tools, developing them, and enabling them through flexible legislation in order to govern their usage.
This statement was during Al Olama’s participation in a session hosted by Ajman University, as part of a series of lectures on Inventing the Future. Al Olama spoke about ‘The prospects of the use of modern technology and AI technology to raise performance levels in various industries and organisations’.

Al Olama reviewed the stages of the development of technology, since the invention of printers until today, and spoke about people’s reactions to these technological advancements.
“While many countries opposed artificial intelligence at first, the UAE welcomed it and was keen to keep pace with the rapid changes that will contribute to developing all aspects of life. The UAE works on anticipating the future, and believes that artificial intelligence is key to finding solutions to future challenges” said Al Olama.
