Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy, one of the three chambers operating under the umbrella of Dubai Chambers, has launched 'The Entrepreneur's AI Playbook' to raise awareness about the artificial intelligence tools and applications entrepreneurs can leverage to successfully launch, manage, and scale their businesses.
The guide was developed as part of the 'Create Apps in Dubai' initiative launched by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence of the UAE, and Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai.
'Create Apps in Dubai' seeks to train and upskill 1,000 UAE nationals, strengthen digital capabilities, and triple the number of app developers in Dubai, as well as support the launch of 100 new homegrown mobile application projects.

This includes the setup phase, covering naming and brand identity, followed by developing value propositions, business models, and digital products and services. The guide also addresses the operational phase, including customer acquisition, fulfilment, billing, and customer support.
The guide highlights Dubai's commitment to building a world-class AI ecosystem, which is reflected in several strategic initiatives and events. These include the AI Retreat, the Dubai Universal Blueprint for AI, the appointment of Chief AI Officers across government entities, and AI Week in Dubai schools, together with programmes designed to empower entrepreneurs to harness advanced AI technologies across diverse sectors.

First, He Ruined Twitter. Now He's Coming for Vine's Legacy.
Elon, we all do crazy things post-breakup, but if anything, we need less social media. And certainly less AI. Elon Musk has another idea that no one asked for and no one wants. If you weren't of iPhone age between 2013 and 2017, let me explain: Vine was a six-second video-sharing app that took the internet by storm. Basically, it walked so TikTok could run (unfortunately, it also gave us Jake Paul, but that's a different story). Just as quickly as it arrived, it vanished, leaving behind a trail of compilations and quotes branded in our brains. It completely reframed the way our brains read 'Road Work Ahead.' (I sure hope it does). Not to mention every time we see an avocado (It's an avocado…thanks). Most Popular George Clooney Sounds Like a Lovely House Husband Ohio Woman Faces 'Abuse of a Corpse' Charge for Miscarriage in Another Post-Roe Nightmare Abortion Access Will, Once Again, Be Decided by the Supreme Court Since then, Vine has been resting peacefully, but because society is hell bent on ruining once-beautiful things, it's coming back. Elon Musk announced Thursday that he plans to revive the app—but! with an artificial intelligence twist. Because that's what we need more of on the internet…. According to Musk, 100% of the content on his new Vine will be AI-generated, and I, for one, hate living in the future. Here's what I expect to go down on Elon's new AI Vine: Right off the bat, deep fakes of Obama and Hillary Clinton chilling in the Illuminati dungeons. That just seems like it would fit the clientele. Then, some videos that your weird uncle will send you at 3 a.m. featuring disturbingly high-quality Biden softcore. And that would just be the first three scrolls. I can't even imagine the horror you'd see after doom-scrolling Musk's for you page for an hour. But it would probably be AI-generated podcast clips explaining why Adele is a time-traveling psyop, sent from the near future to set fire to the rain. Yes, Twitter is bad. But AI Vine will be worse. It will be an even bigger cesspool of Musk-fearing, conspiracy-loving, keyboard-banging incels who think AI is 'sick, bro.' But hey, that's just one girl's prediction. Vine was once a place for innocent chaos and internet weirdos to come together. It shaped the sense of humor of a generation. I would hate for Gen Alpha to be exposed, even for a second, to whatever the fuck this will be. As someone who grew up on Vine, I beg Musk: leave it alone. Elon, we all do crazy things post-breakup, but if anything, we need less social media. We need less AI. Can we please bring back buying the local paper from the paperboy for a nickel and reading it under a gazebo in your town square???? I have to go. I need to shut my laptop. I can't do this anymore. If anyone needs me, I'll be watching Vine compilations on TikTok. Like what you just read? You've got great taste. Subscribe to Jezebel, and for $5 a month or $50 a year, you'll get access to a bunch of subscriber benefits, including getting to read the next article (and all the ones after that) ad-free. Plus, you'll be supporting independent journalism—which, can you even imagine not supporting independent journalism in times like these? Yikes. Solve the daily Crossword

McDonald's plans AI expansion to streamline customer orders, executive says
McDonald's is ramping up its use of artificial intelligence to streamline customer orders and sharpen its business operations, with plans to "double down" on AI investments by 2027, a senior executive said on Friday, according to Reuters. The fast-food giant currently uses AI to verify orders at 400 restaurants in India, allowing the chain to catch and correct errors before food is handed to customers, according to the outlet. McDonald's is planning to roll out the new system globally in two years, Head of Global Business Services Operations Deshant Kaila said, Reuters reported. "We're still in the early stages, so it's hard to pin down the exact investment," Kaila said during an event in the southern city of Hyderabad, India. Beyond order accuracy, McDonald's is leveraging AI to forecast sales, determine pricing strategies, and evaluate product performance, Reuters reported, adding that the company is also developing a personalized mobile app that will function across multiple countries. Mcdonald's Ending Ai Drive-thru Ordering The outlet said that India is playing an increasingly central role in McDonald's global tech strategy. Once known mainly for low-cost outsourcing, India's global capability centers have evolved to provide critical support across its operations. Read On The Fox Business App After entering the Indian market in 1996, McDonald's now operates hundreds of locations nationwide and recently opened a global office in Hyderabad, with an aim to make it the largest outside the United States, the outlet said. Mcdonald's Ai Hiring Chatbot Exposed Data Of Job Candidates The company is also exploring the launch of a new global office in Poland—modeled after its existing hubs in India and Mexico—as part of its broader strategy to expand global capability centers, Reuters reported, citing McDonald's Head of Technology for Global Offices Durga Prakash. Click Here To Read More On Fox Business McDonald's previous attempts at AI integration have seen mixed results. Last summer, the company scrapped a separate drive-thru voice-ordering initiative after telling franchisees the technology failed to meet expectations in early trials.

Elon Musk says Grok's latest feature is the new Vine
You might soon have a new favorite Vine video — or see an old favorite return to the timeline — thanks to Elon Musk 's new AI-powered text-to-video generator, Grok Imagine. "Grok Imagine is AI Vine!" Musk wrote in an X post on Saturday, touting the latest feature from his chatbot, Grok. Grok Imagine — now in beta — allows users to type out images or scenes they'd like to see the AI bot animate into video. It then generates clips with sound to the user's specifications. Before TikTok — and long before Grok — there was Vine. The beloved short-form video service, which allowed users to create and upload 6-second videos, was owned by then-Twitter shortly after its 2012 founding until its shuttering in 2017. It was the source of many early viral videos and the subject of numerous compilations of "the best Vines of all time." While Grok Imagine offers a new AI spin on short-form clips, Musk also appears to be eyeing a comeback for Vine itself. "Btw, we recently found the Vine video archive (thought it had been deleted) and are working on restoring user access, so you can post them if you want," Musk added in his Saturday post. It's unclear whether restoring the Vine archive would allow users to access their old accounts or if it would be a temporary measure allowing access to old files from the service. Musk and representatives for X did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider. For now, access to Grok Imagine is being slowly rolled out to subscribers of the chatbot's $30-monthly premium tier, SuperGrok, though any user of X can sign up to be added to the waitlist.
