UAE to use AI for accelerating legal innovation and governance
Authorities in the United Arab Emirates have announced the launch of the country’s first integrated regulatory intelligence ecosystem powered by artificial intelligence, Kazinform News Agency correspondent reports, citing Khaleej Times reports.
According to the announcement, the new system will cover the entire legal landscape by linking federal and local legislation, judicial decisions, executive procedures, and public services. Its primary goal is to enable continuous real-time monitoring of the impact laws have on society and the economy.
One of the core features of the new system is what's known as "predictive lawmaking." Rather than simply responding to existing problems, it will enable the development of legislative initiatives based on trend analysis and data insights. The system will also routinely suggest legislative updates informed by the data it collects.
Authorities emphasize that the use of AI in legal regulation will fully comply with existing constitutional frameworks, as well as all principles of transparency and accountability.
According to UAE government projections, artificial intelligence could contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030. For the UAE, this could translate into a 35% increase in GDP and a reduction in government spending by half.
Earlier, Kazinform News Agency reported that one million Kazakhstani citizens will harness artificial intelligence in 5 years.
