Public administration at the United Arab Emirates is undergoing a revolution in digital innovation and governance with seamless integration of cutting-edge technology.
This move is set to enhance citizen services, fortify cybersecurity, and streamline decision-making processes across all levels of government. The latest initiatives mark a decisive transition toward proactive, data-driven governance designed to shape a more agile and efficient future.
Revolutionising government work
The Government of the UAE has announced fresh measures for its work teams, including consistency in delivering deadlines, rapid adaption of Agentic AI and maintaining the country's international repute.
This message was delivered during the recent UAE Cabinet meeting, chaired by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
With more than 308 million digital transactions and 15.8 million government applications downloads across 1,633 digital services, the UAE remains in the highest tier of the cybersecurity index. "These results confirm that the digital transformation journey continues, and that investing in technology and AI is an investment in the quality and the future of government services,” said Rashid Al Maktoum.
In line with the UAE's cybersecurity standards and confidentiality principles, the Cabinet has launched a new agentic AI operating model that will be embedded in government work. Supporting analyses of potential programmes, policies and legislation, the Cabinet AI Advisor system will influence government decision making at the Cabinet and the Ministerial Council for Artificial Intelligence and Development.
Ensuring quality output
“In today's meeting the Cabinet approved the launch and rollout of the Cabinet AI Advisor system, a new step in improving government decision making, accelerating the study of projects and initiatives, and raising the quality of government output. The system works through 32 specialised AI advisors that analyse policies and legislation, assess their impact, review global best practice and put forward recommendations. The system will work with our ministers, 24 hours a day, to follow up on decisions and their implementation... The UAE government does not stop... and its decisions are continuous... We aim for a more efficient government, and faster and more accurate decisions,” said Rashid Al Maktoum.
