"The Arab world is no different than, I think, governments around the world, which they tend to lag the evolution of technology. So, I think what's really exciting is to see an ecosystem approach starting to happen, where students coming out of a university have the mastery and the knowledge to really sort of drive change. And, I think the best role for the government is to encourage that and to allow for that change to happen."

The AI Arab Summit for Artificial Intelligence in order to instigate and support this movement toward more use and more application of AI and to flourish the entrepreneurial spirit and the production of AI, related to Arab issues and Arab problems in business, and on the social side as well, in the Arab world."

"In the MENA region or the Middle East region, in Jordan, talking about Jordan, talking about Saudi Arabia and UAE, as you can see, most of them are establishing what we call national strategies or AI labs or AI hubs because they realized now the value of AI and they realized in the Arab region that AI is not an option, AI is now something that we must have. It's not really a commodity that we can just add to our organizations. In the past five or ten years, many organizations in the Arab region have been focusing on data collection, collecting healthcare data and store it. Now, we're moving into the next level, which is where we're talking about. Okay, I have the data, I have the computing power. Now, the focus is on building AI centers, AI centers of excellence, AI hubs. This is what basically the ecosystem to take the AI idea from a concept to deployment."

LEADIN:
Technology experts are calling for greater implementation of AI technologies across the Arab world.
As the United States and China spar for leadership in AI technology, business leaders in Jordan say the Middle East is a "fertile ground for innovation".
STORYLINE:
Around 1,500 attendees, 60 experts, governments, academics and start-ups are here for the Arab Artificial Intelligence Summit.
Panels and discussion groups are exploring the possibilities of AI, encouraging greater innovation and application of AI across the region.
Speakers at the summit are highlighting the importance of AI, particularly the digital transformation it offers in all kinds of fields, including healthcare, energy, education, finance, investment and the Internet of Things.
Maurizio Vecchione, executive vice president of Global Good, a program part funded by Bill Gates, says he hopes to inspire young people to go into AI and develop technology for good.
"I think what's really exciting is to see an ecosystem approach starting to happen, where students coming out of a university have the mastery and the knowledge to really sort of drive change," he says.
Lynnwood Farr, CEO of Swiss firm Xcell Security House and Finance, says their aim is to bring the benefits of AI to countries that are yet to realise its potential.
"My focus is bringing Middle East help to some of the Muslim countries, like the Republic of Guinea, Sierra Leone, those countries that need help in the AI side," he says.
Saad El Barak, executive chairman of ILA Group, says the Arab World still in "a primitive stage of deploying and using AI".
That's particularly the case when it comes to executives and higher management.
"Only four percent of executives worldwide use AI, definitely this is much less in the Arab World," he says.
Dann Wilkens, chief marketing officer of AI company Beyond Limits, says the Middle East is "fertile ground for innovation".
"AI is a tool that can be used to improve businesses," he says.
"So, any industry, any government, any education facility, can benefit from increased efficiency, reduced waste, smoother operations and more intelligent decision-making based on the value that AI can bring."
Ahmad AbuSalah, director of Clinical Informatics at the University of Minnesota, says AI is no longer just an option for the Arab World, it's a necessity.
"Now, the focus is on building AI centers, AI centers of excellence, AI hubs. This is what basically the ecosystem to take the AI idea from a concept to deployment," he says.

Representatives from major international companies, including Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Facebook and IBM were also in attendance.
