In October, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, vice president and prime minister of the UAE, said artificial intelligence is the next major revolution of our time, and selected a state minister to focus on this space.
The newly appointed Minister of State for artificial intelligence Omar Sultan AlOlama, says his top priority is to discuss how governments should address A.I., and put regulations in place.
Elon Musk tweeted recently that "competition for A.I. superiority at a national level most likely cause of WW3." Musk has been no stranger about his fears of A.I. AlOlama says his concerns are valid.
He compared Mark Zuckerberg's embrace of A.I. to Elon Musk's unease of the technology, and says that the difference between both opinions is one has a short-term effect, and the other is focused on the long run. AlOlama says Musk's views come into play in the future. But governments need to have these types of discussions today, says AlOlama.
The UAE is also working on a project in partnership with Oxford University and UNESCO to restore artifacts through technology. Recently, ISIS has destroyed historic artifacts. Through this partnership, they 3D printed the Arc of Palmyra to bring it back to life.

Elon Musk announced that he expects Starship to reach orbit in 2022. The SpaceX CEO delivered updates about the largest space vehicle to be constructed from its Texas facility. Jim Cantrell, CEO and co-founder at Phantom Space, joined Cheddar News to talk about the future of Starship. "I've always done wrong by betting against Elon," he said. "The one thing that I find very curious is it launches 100 metric tons into space, and last year, in the entire year, we launched 750. So, you know, with about seven launches, he could launch every satellite on Earth."
Sheri Bachstein, CEO of The Weather Company and GM of IBM Watson Advertising, joins ChedHER to discuss her successes in this role, and how she's helping women thrive in the c-suite.
Amid a string of recalls for their electric cars, Tesla is also facing a lawsuit over workplace discrimination. The electric automaker is being accused by California’s Department of Fair Employment and Housing of a pattern of racial discrimination against Black workers. Caleb Silver, Editor-in-Chief at Investopedia, joined Cheddar News to discuss the numerous technical and safety issues that led to the recalls and the allegations of systemic racist abuse at its Fremont plant. "Tesla disputes these claims, but still you can’t avoid the pattern," he said.
