Artificial Intelligence is the science of programming machines or
computers to get done activities that humans can do or aid humans to do the
things better, which can be learning and decision-making.
AI is penetrating every aspect of business, so all sorts of technology
services companies, including mobile app development companies focus on
artificial intelligence to leverage trends. On the other hand, Artificial Intelligence
(AI) turned out to be a controversial technology as well.
However, AI
is trending globally. Dubai as a global city is home for innovation and
technological advances in fields such as healthcare and education and is
formulating the consistent growth of the UAE.
Chris Schroeder, the author of ‘Start-up Rising’ and
panel moderator at GITEX Future Stars, answers three quick questions on
artificial intelligence in the UAE, tech entrepreneurship and disruption
opportunities.
*You are moderating
a panel about artificial intelligence at GITEX Future Stars. For what reason
you think that Dubai and the UAE can rise as a focus for innovation in AI?
There are 3
things that are in support for Dubai and the UAE as a centre for any innovation
in the Middle East and other growing markets.
The country keeps changing the rules to make advancement and generate interest
in AI, which is easier and more reliable than ever.
With a
growing talent network, new legislation, and more venture capital interest, the
UAE has all the key ingredients to emerge as a centre for technology start-ups.
Today, Dubai on the Persian Gulf has grown as a hub from which tech
start-ups with roots across the Middle East look towards rising markets and
create data sets solving unique and large problems.
*What are the difficulties
entrepreneurs facing when trying to build an AI start-up in the region?
The power and speed of what is happening in AI in Silicon Valley and
China is significant - So, it will be essential to find contrasting and
scalable ways to optimize these new technologies.
*Are there any other local industries ready for technology disruption?
What are some of those conspicuous start-up opportunities you see?
Each and every industry face challenges with new technology and the new
opportunities it creates. In a way, the key is to concentrate on building
solutions, solving the challenges.
From a start-up viewpoint, businesses that fill the gap in the society,
and get hands dirty in solving complicated challenges emerge. AI has such
opportunities for businesses. Dubai has many such startups.
Every new tech graduate now says since I am starting my career, I would
like to shore up my maths and statistics skill, expose myself to as much data
science as possible and even I would like to know about AI, VR, robotics
innovations in health such as genomics, and about blockchain. But I would still
study history, push myself to write and think critically.
