            H.E. added:“The report 'Generative AI Adoption Amongst Dubai Government Employees,'
            launched in partnership with the Mohammed bin Rashid School of Government,
            represents a pivotal step in our efforts to build a future-oriented government model rooted
            in innovation and artificial intelligence. It also affirms that our human capital is well-
            equipped, efficient, and confident to keep pace with global transformations. At the Dubai
            Government Human Resources Department, we have developed a clear roadmap to
            enhance the readiness of government human resources. This roadmap prioritises the
            development of digital skills, fostering a culture of innovation, and creating a flexible and
            supportive environment for the integration and effective use of generative AI tools.”


            His Excellency Al Falasi further emphasised that the findings of the report serve as a
            practical reference for formulating proactive policies, designing specialised training
            programmes, and updating work systems, in line with the rapid advancements in this field.
            H.E. said:“We firmly believe in the importance of establishing an integrated system for AI
            governance within the government work environment-one that ensures the ethical and
            effective use of these technologies, enhances institutional efficiency, and upholds the
            fundamental principles of privacy and reliability.”


            For his part, His Excellency Dr. Ali bin Sebaa Al Marri, MBRSG's Executive President,
            said:“As part of its mandate to equip and empower government leaders, the Mohammed
            Bin Rashid School of Government remains committed to providing reliable data and
            resources to inform decision and policymaking across government departments.”


            “With its research capabilities, the MBRSG has become a leading center for future of
            government research, capacity building and public policy consulting. With that in mind, our
            dedicated AI governance policy research team are once again leading the way, in
            collaboration with our partners at the Dubai Government Human Resources Department,
            with a new report that focuses on generative artificial intelligence– a breakthrough that is
            quickly transforming entire industries, including the government sector,” H.E. Al Marri
            added.“The conclusions drawn from this study will be essential in formulating policies that
            support innovation while ensuring adoption of AI advancements in an inclusive, safe, and
            ethically guided manner.”


            The report uncovered important insights on the behaviours, trends, opportunities and
            challenges associated with the rise of generative AI. For example, an overwhelming
            majority of public sector employees (94%) are optimistic about the impact of generative AI
            on government operations. Meanwhile, a majority of users in the public sector (64%) use
            generative AI at an intermediate or advanced level. Among the users of these applications,
            nearly all (97%) reported benefits from the use of generative AI for work tasks, including
            time savings, improved work quality, productivity and increased creativity.


            Specifically, public sector employees most commonly use generative AI for email drafting,
            content creation and research processes assistance, with expert users exploring a greater
            variety and complexity of tasks relying on these technologies.


            The ground-breaking report also uncovers challenges and widespread concerns, with
            inaccurate outputs, data privacy issues, biased output and unreliable performance being
            the top issues reported by public servants in Dubai when using generative AI applications.
