Dubai unveils first AI-generated 'Emirati family'
Dubai has introduced its first AI-powered virtual Emirati family, set to serve as the face of the government's digital strategy. The interactive cast of characters will operate as brand ambassadors for Digital Dubai, the organisation tasked with promoting the integration of online services and advanced technology in everyday life. The first member of the futuristic family was revealed on Thursday. The remarkably lifelike young girl – dressed in traditional attire – is shown in a short video smiling at the camera as she plays in a park. To help encourage community participation, she invited the public to help select her name from three options – Dubai, Mira, or Latifa. The project will introduce more members of the family − including the father, mother and brother − to form a complete digital representation of an Emirati household. They will be used to raise awareness of digital services on offer in Dubai in a light and relatable fashion. The initiative highlights how such AI technology is developing at a rapid pace. In 2023, a Kuwaiti media outlet unveiled a virtual news presenter generated using artificial intelligence, with plans for her to read online bulletins. Fedha appeared on the Twitter account of the Kuwait News website, her light-coloured hair uncovered, wearing a black jacket and white T-shirt.
