I’m still buzzing from yesterday's 2024 #AIRetreat at the Museum of the Future in #Dubai where over 2,500 transformative innovators, government officials, entrepreneurs, and #AI enthusiasts united to explore the future of #ArtificialIntelligence and discuss the key challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.   At this iconic event, the first under Dubai's Universal Blueprint for Artificial Intelligence, launched under the patronage of HH Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, we discussed the key challenges and opportunities ahead. Through 35 sessions and workshops, we've set the foundation to accelerate the future of AI in #Dubai.   I was honored to participate in an insightful roundtable discussion led by Hadi Badri on the priorities and challenges we see across the AI talent landscape and how we ensure we bring everyone along the journey through intentional development and upskilling programs. I was also fortunate to contribute to a panel discussion on #ResponsibleAI alongside fellow panelists Ali Haidar and Steve Bennett, Ph.D. , moderated by Rima Semaan.   Throughout the day, a key theme emerged: the future of #AI isn't merely about technological advancements but also about the collective will and partnership to build and deploy AI responsibly in order to harness it's potential for the greater good. #ResponsibleAI #AIFuture #DubAI #eand
