His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, celebrated over 370 graduates of the Federal Artificial Intelligence Programme, appreciating their role towards the UAE’s vision for a future that is digitally driven.
In the ceremony, Sheikh Mohammed praised the graduates for adopting advanced technologies and for being an integral part in speeding up the UAE’s digital revolution. He underscored the importance of enabling national talent in AI and future technologies to ensure the UAE’s leadership as a global innovation hub.
The Federal AI Programme aimed to provide AI knowledge to professionals in the public and private sectors. It tackled topics like machine learning, predictive analytics, and the use of AI ethically. The programme aligns with the UAE Centennial 2071 objectives through the development of a generation of AI-literate leaders and entrepreneurs.
The event is another milestone in the UAE’s ambitious vision to become a global leader in artificial intelligence. As Sheikh Mohammed emphasized, “AI is not the future—it is the present, and we are preparing our people for it.”
