The Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) launched the “AI Adoption Framework” during the Third Global AI Summit. The document aims to support #Vision2030 by guiding the adoption of AI technology in both public and private sectors, with the establishment of AI offices in 23 government entities to ensure its ethical and responsible implementation.
The framework serves as a roadmap for establishing AI units, assessing readiness, and training competencies, with a focus on data, infrastructure, and ethical use. It highlights core principles such as transparency, responsibility, and privacy, while raising public awareness to ensure the safe use of technology.
Global Comparison:
- #Singapore: The AI Governance Framework focuses on transparency and integrity, promoting effective partnerships between the government and major companies like banks and tech firms.
- EU: The AI Act classifies risks from low to high and imposes strict penalties, with a focus on legal governance such as risk management and transparency.
- US and Canada: The US follows initiatives like the National AI Initiative, which includes guidelines for consumer protection and reducing bias in AI algorithms, while Canada focuses on academic research and privacy laws like PIPEDA to ensure the ethical use of personal data.
What distinguishes the #SDAIA framework is its integration of ethical direction within a comprehensive national strategy that fosters innovation and emphasizes social responsibility, boosting Saudi Arabia’s regional and global position in the AI field.
