Summary

Artificial intelligence isn’t just a hot-button issue for the tech industry—it’s a key part of global geopolitics. But how has AI become such a focus for political leaders around the world, and what are governments doing to harness the benefits of AI and mitigate the negative consequences? Assistant Foreign Minister for Advanced Science and Technology for the UAE Omran Sharaf joins David Rothkopf to provide perspective on these key questions and what the UAE has been doing in the field of artificial intelligence. This material is distributed by TRG Advisory Services, LLC on behalf of the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in the U.S..
