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.
