UAE Unveils AI-Powered Strategy to Transform Govt Services
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has officially launched a sweeping new federal strategy that will leverage artificial intelligence to manage resources and streamline government services. Announced as part of the UAE Federal Government Strategic Plan 2031, the initiative is a key pillar of the 'We the UAE 2031' vision, aiming to modernize how the government operates, delivers services, and allocates resources. 'We're proud to launch the UAE Federal Government Strategic Plan 2031 – a new chapter in shaping a smarter, faster and more efficient government,' said Sheikh Mohammed, according to Dubai Media Office. 'Today, success means making things easier and faster – delivering seamless services and using resources wisely in a complex world,' he added. From red tape to real-time: AI takes center stage Sheikh Mohammed emphasized that AI will be embedded into the very core of federal operations. The focus? Efficiency, innovation, and flexibility across ministries—without compromising the UAE's commitment to quality and citizen satisfaction. This revamped planning cycle will engage 38 federal entities, bringing together strategic minds in finance, future planning, and administration. Ministries have been tasked with aligning their goals to reflect the evolving demands of a high-tech future. And it doesn't stop there. Last month, Sheikh Mohammed announced that a National Artificial Intelligence System will become an advisory member of the UAE Cabinet starting January—marking a global first and signaling just how central AI will be to governance moving forward. 'The world is going through comprehensive restructuring, scientifically, economically and socially,' Sheikh Mohammed said. 'Our goal is being ready today for the coming decades and ensuring continuing prosperity and a decent life for the following generations.' A future-proof federal playbook This new AI-forward strategy echoes the UAE's long-standing commitment to future-proofing its systems. Rather than expanding bureaucracy, the plan focuses on smarter tech, leaner teams, and faster delivery —all while keeping citizens at the heart of innovation. With artificial intelligence officially part of the federal equation, the UAE is not just adapting to the future—it's shaping it.
