First AI minister likens overregulation to refusal to adopt the printing press

  • The world's first AI minister, Omar Al Olama, warns that overregulation of artificial intelligence (AI) can have grave consequences, comparing it to the Middle East's refusal to adopt the printing press, which led to the decline of the Ottoman Empire.

  • Al Olama emphasizes the need for governments to find a balance between regulation and progress, and suggests a three-pronged approach of reskilling, retooling, and retiring for workers affected by AI.

  • He believes that proactive measures are necessary to ensure that the population is not left behind in the face of AI advancements.
