AI and data are crucial in virtually every aspect of our lives, both professional and personal. The combination of AI and data help drive automation, improve efficiency and decision making, enable predictive analytics, personalisation and enhancement of user experiences…the list is endless. Ultimately, AI and data help facilitate innovation, which is the focus of the ADGM Academy Research Centre.

We are proud to publish this paper by Sanjay, Shien and Satish as they share their insights on the extraordinary amount of data available and continuously generated, and how AI can be utilised to improve the way people’s lives, businesses, governments and national economies can evolve.
