Sheikh Mohammed reveals new AI strategy for streamlining services
The new policy will enable the UAE to make government services easier and faster, said Sheikh Mohammed.
"We're proud to launch the UAE Federal Government Strategic Plan 2031 – a new chapter in shaping a smarter, faster and more efficient government," said Sheikh Mohammed, as reported by Dubai Media Office.
"This phase focuses on using AI to streamline processes and improve how we manage resources across the federal government. In the past, success was measured by the strength of regulations, the size of teams and the complexity of procedures.
"Today, success means making things easier and faster – delivering seamless services and using resources wisely in a complex world," said Sheikh Mohammed, also Vice President. "Tools may change and goals may shift, but one thing stays the same: our commitment to excellence in serving the people of the UAE."
Sheikh Mohammed has directed teams across ministries and strategies based on more innovative and flexible foundations, incorporating AI as part of the 'We the UAE 2031' vision, the media office said.
The planning cycle will involve 38 federal groups and brings together key public officials, including directors of strategy, future planning and finance.
Last month, Sheikh Mohammed announced a National Artificial Intelligence System would become an advisory member of the UAE Cabinet, starting in January next year.
'The world is going through comprehensive restructuring, scientifically, economically and socially and our goal is being ready today for the coming decades and ensuring continuing prosperity and a decent life for the following generations,' Sheikh Mohammed said at the time.

Ahmed Al Calily told Wam that, in light of rapid global changes, Abu Dhabi's strategic investment arm is keen to enhance its role and effective contributions to the efforts aimed at building a strong and diversified economic future for the UAE through investments in strategic, future-shaping sectors. Investments in vital sectors such as AI, semiconductors, life sciences, financial markets and energy, as well as the establishment of national companies that compete at the global level, are allowing Mubadala to achieve its goals, he said. Speaking to The National in January last year, Mr Al Calily said that "AI is definitely the next big mover and shaker". "It is the next disruptor for the consumer and for enterprise," he said. "This is the future; you cannot run away from it." Mubadala is continuing to expand its investments in sectors such as clean energy, health care and life sciences. In May, Mubadala launched a new pharmaceuticals company, boosting the UAE's manufacturing sector and further positioning the Emirates' healthcare industry on the global stage. Mubadala Bio will have a manufacturing capacity of more than 2.5 billion tablets and capsules, and 120 million units of intravenous solutions and injectables, the company said in a statement. In its 2024 annual report, Mubadala's assets increased by 9.1 per cent year on year to reach Dh1.2 trillion, and achieved a 33.7 per cent year-on-year increase in investment placement to Dh119 billion, Wam reported.
