沙特正在制定雄心勃勃的经济建设计划，沙特大数据与人工智能主管机构发布了多个阶段发展战略，将该国定位为到2030年该领域的全球引领者。
机构发言人称：“大数据与AI是沙特2030发展愿景的核心基石，通过制定自主AI战略和政策，开发与其他国家分享的技能和资源，确保所有国家在平等基础上开发AI价值。”
该机构是接受总理直接领导的政府部门。
在 GITEX贸易展上，该机构宣布AI领域三大进展：
- 博罗格平台，为G-20峰会开发的政府安全视频会议系统，该机构宣布采用其开发的特殊保护系统，已击退200多万次网络攻击。
- tawakkalna APP程序，旨在为政府提供应对新冠肺炎疫情手段。
- Artathon AI系统，将在沙特举办首届国际人工智能艺术大赛。
Saudi Arabia makes artificial intelligence a cornerstone of its 2030 vision
As Saudi Arabia moves forward with an ambitious economic plan, the country’s data and artificial intelligence authority released a multiphase strategy that aims to position the nation as a global leader in the field by 2030.
“Data and AI are at the heart of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. By developing our own AI strategy and policies, we have developed the skills and resources that we wish to share with other nations to ensure that all countries are equally prepared to harness the value of AI,” said Majid AlShehry, a spokesperson for the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority, a government office linked directly to the prime minister.
At the GITEX trade show, the organization showcased three developments:
- The Boroog platform, a secure government videoconferencing system, used for the G-20 summit. SDAIA disclosed in November that the authority has repelled more than 2 million cyberattacks using special protections it had developed.
- The Tawakkalna app, designed to support government efforts aimed at countering COVID-19. It facilitates the issuance of movement permits electronically during curfews for government and private sector employees.
- AI Artathon, the first international artificial intelligence art competition held in Saudi Arabia.
AlShehry stressed SDAIA is helping during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in the economic and defense sectors, by tracking data.
“SDAIA has responded to COVID-19 by creating the operations center for supporting the security and health sectors in tackling the coronavirus pandemic,” he said. “The center has helped decision-makers to develop effective strategies based on data and facts and supported the nation’s precautionary measures to combat the spread of the virus.”
The operations center has utilized the datasets from the National Data Bank (NDB), together with its Estishraf platform’s advanced capabilities, to help analyze data, he added. In addition, the group makes use of platforms from its operational arm, the National Information Center (NIC), when required.
“These efforts have played a significant role in helping to contain the virus and reducing its impact on people and the economy,” AlShehry said.
