The UAE's AI Minister, Omar Al Olama, is at the center of a global AI power struggle. Microsoft recently invested $1.5 billion in Abu Dhabi-based AI group G42, aligning it with the US to counter China's influence. This move underscores the UAE's ambitious AI strategy, aiming to make AI a $96 billion industry by 2030.
The partnership has led to cutting ties with Chinese suppliers, reflecting the US push to limit China's tech advancements. The UAE, rich in oil, is leveraging AI to diversify its economy.
Projects like Falcon10B and Jais showcase the UAE's commitment to leading in AI. But, with great power comes great responsibility. Olama warns of AI's potential risks, calling for global regulation.
