His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has reviewed progress on a recently announced project to transform 50 per cent of UAE government services within two years through Agentic AI-powered autonomous execution and decision-making.
Sheikh Mohammed said that integrating AI into government work is a strategic priority in a rapidly evolving world, with the UAE Government choosing to lead the shift.
"Our teams are leading this national transformation. Their ability to work with future technologies is key to our success. Our ambitions are boundless, and the road ahead demands even greater determination worthy of the UAE’s name," His Highness added.
He was accompanied by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence of the UAE, and senior officials.
They were briefed about the objectives of the new Agentic AI system in government work, which aims to improve efficiency and enhance service quality.
Mohammad Abdullah Al Gergawi, Minister of Cabinet Affairs, said the team has begun following through on the leadership’s directives to implement the project by identifying the requirements and mechanisms needed to achieve a 50 per cent shift towards AI-driven government operations.
The project will streamline procedures, speed up delivery, and improve the accuracy and efficiency of government decision-making through integrated federal data and advanced digital infrastructure.
It also focuses on building national AI capabilities, enabling faster and more proactive services, and strengthening the UAE’s leadership in advanced, people-centred government models.
