The U.A.E. has been turning into an AI pioneer regionally and globally, which has been planned out in its National AI Strategy 2031, organizing a entire economic and social transformation. The country is no longer resource-dependent but is a data-driven powerhouse, as the priorities on the high-performance digital infrastructure and loose legislation have changed. This is an important case study to developing countries such as Bangladesh. Since the UAE, in its example, shows how new technologies can be used to improve human life and national competitiveness, it can provide a strategic roadmap of how the project envisioned as Bangladesh Smart can develop, relying on the talent and ethical innovation to achieve the goal of becoming a part of the global digital economy.
A Blueprint for Predictive Governance
The UAE has already become the global leader in terms of the number of government entities that exploit AI by staggering 97 percent. This is a move towards predictive governance whereby information-driven insights streamline and enhance institutional efficiency in the delivery of public services. UAE practice of providing regulatory sandbox, i.e., the possibility to experiment with AI solutions at a high rate, is an example that can be followed by the National AI Policy 2026-2030 of Bangladesh. Through the pursuit of innovation and the assurance of safety, the UAE has created a new image of conscientious digital change in the world.
Driving the Economic Engine
The economic diversification of the UAE is based on Artificial Intelligence. Smart ports apply AI-powered orchestration to smart trade worldwide in logistics by managing it more accurately than ever before. At the same time, machine learning is used in the fintech and e-government industries to improve liquidity and security. Such technological maturity has made the nation a beacon of foreign investment, in this case, R&D. In the case of a developing economy such as Bangladesh, these high impact verticals give it a clear roadmap to leave behind the conventional manufacturing and enter high value tech services.
Notes for Bangladesh: Building the “Bangla-AI” Future
The UAE focus on Infrastructure, Talent and Ethics can be noted down significantly by Bangladesh. Whereas the UAE has introduced sophisticated models such as the Jais 2 in Arabic, Bangladesh is at present putting more emphasis on its own AI infrastructure in Bangali to make sure that everyone uses it. Following the approach of the UAE toward the notion of responsible AI, Bangladesh will be able to make sure that its digital growth will not be exclusive and unethical.
There is also increased synergy between the two countries as the UAE has become a significant investor in Bangladesh ports and energy; a special opportunity exists to exchange the knowledge in the area of AI governance. As the UAE keeps on the leading role, its experience is what gives the country the booster that Bangladesh requires to transform its fantastic policy maps into life.
