Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said on Wednesday that Iraq has preceded other countries in the region in introducing artificial intelligence studies into the academic curriculum at universities in the country.[/size]
[size=45]This came during his chairmanship of the first meeting of the Supreme Committee for Artificial Intelligence, during which the Iraqi National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence was reviewed, as well as the most important aspects, projects and applications that the government will support in this field, according to a statement issued by Al-Sudani’s media office.[/size]
[size=45]The statement said that the meeting discussed the need for state ministries and institutions to include projects and legislation related to artificial intelligence, introduce its terms into educational curricula, and establish the first educational platform that operates with artificial intelligence, and in smart applications that are currently being worked on within the tasks of the ministries, and in development fields.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sudani referred to the government's measures for digital transformation in formulating a general policy without taking the role of government agencies, stressing that adopting this path represents a priority in the government's work in order to support its steps in reforming the Iraqi economy, as well as in using artificial intelligence applications in applications of the technological revolution, and in various activities and life sectors.[/size]
[size=45]He added that Iraq has preceded other countries in the region in introducing artificial intelligence studies into academic studies in Iraqi universities, stressing the importance of benefiting from the experiences of advanced countries by adopting information security legislation and ethical oversight in technology security, especially since terrorism is constantly trying to use technology and cyberspace to carry out its crimes and recruit individuals, as well as employing artificial intelligence to diversify the Iraqi economy, especially in non-oil sectors.[/size]
