Government support will be needed to help address this challenge. However, this provides us an opportunity to reimagine our approach to healthcare, leaving us better prepared for future challenges.

The GCC region will need around 12,300 additional hospital beds by 2029.

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

What does this mean for me?
For #healthcare leaders, this is both an immense challenge and an opportunity to be innovative. By embracing automation and remote health solutions, you can address health concerns in a more timely manner and reduce the number of hospitalisations.

As AI continues to change the way we learn, it could unlock a new level of productivity and thus spark economic growth. Countries like the UAE that foster AI-based innovation will be best positioned to benefit.

#FutureOfLearning

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

#AI is changing the way we learn, with a UCL survey finding that 77% of respondents find it better to learn through AI video compared to text.

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

For educators, this also represents a chance to rethink your approach to #education. By incorporating AI video, you can better engage students and help them learn more efficiently.

Aline Sara's platform, NaTakallam, is a great example of how technology's potential to create #jobs and income opportunities for people experiencing hardship. As technology continues to evolve, it's our responsibility to find new ways to use it for good. @arabnews

@Liv_Boeree raises an important point about competition in the #AI industry. Collaboration between AI leaders, governments, and the public to prioritise safety and ethics will help us avoid falling into a Moloch trap. @TEDTalks

Here’s how poker champion and science communicator @Liv_Boeree says we can ensure increased competition doesn’t derail the AI industry:

A new #robotic vision system uses #AI and radio-based sensing to build a 3D view of its environment, even through smoke or rain. Such a tool could be incredibly useful for emergency responses or search-and-rescue operations, highlighting AI's potential for good. @wef

The adoption of AI in healthcare is not limited to the UAE. Other countries could soon follow suit in drafting their own frameworks, which would help to ensure that everyone can benefit equally from AI-powered care.

#HealthTech #EthicalAI

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

The UAE's Ministry of Health and Prevention has drafted an ethical framework designed to ensure the responsible use of AI in #healthcare.

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

For patients, this framework can help give you peace of mind that your data and rights are protected, and that you're receiving the highest quality of care.

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

As AI's capabilities evolve, its use cases will, too. If we seize these opportunities we can help accelerate economic growth whilst also making meaningful progress towards a safer and more sustainable world.

The UAE receives just 100mm of #rainfall a year, forcing residents to rely on desalinated water. However, AI-enhanced #CloudSeeding could help alleviate the pressure placed on groundwater systems.

[Rizwan Tufail @rtufail]

If you believe #AI can solve one of society's problems, now is the time to pursue that idea as investor interest in AI for good ramps up.
