Relevant authorities in the field of technology have been asked by the UAE Cabinet to assess new Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, such as ChatGPT, and decide how the government can safely use them.
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, vice president and prime minister of the UAE and ruler of Dubai, said that the study would assess how these technologies affected the media, education, and other sectors of the economy.
ChatGPT successfully imitates human writing using AI. In response to prompts, ChatGPT can produce articles, essays, jokes and even poetry.
In late November, OpenAI, which has the support of Microsoft Corp., made the technology freely accessible to everyone.
The software was developed by California-based OpenAI using terabytes of online data and billions of words, which allows it to produce texts that are surprisingly human-like, including passable school essays.
A policy to increase the effectiveness of government work by utilizing AI technologies was approved by the UAE Cabinet. A safe use of AI is guaranteed by the policy's standards and recommendations. The policy aims to boost competitiveness and the caliber of government services, increase productivity and efficiency across a number of industries, and give workers more opportunities for training.
