DUBAI, 13th June, 2024 (WAM) -- The Dubai Government Human Resources
Department (DGHR) and the Dubai Center for Artificial Intelligence (DCAI) have
announced a partnership to support the ‘One Million Prompters’ initiative. This
collaboration aims to bolster Dubai’s position as a global hub for AI talent and a premier

directly support the goals of the ‘One Million Prompters’ initiative, launched in May by
H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, to upskill one million
individuals in prompt engineering over the next three years.

Abdullah Ali bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director General of the Dubai Government Human
Resources Department (DGHR), stated, “AI has created a quantum leap in
technological advancement, especially over the last two years. It is a powerful tool that
supports professionals across every industry and sector. At the DGHR, we are
proactively integrating AI, training employees, and raising awareness about the
importance of AI's ethical and responsible use. By doing so, we aim to unlock AI’s
potential to create innovative and advanced solutions. We are proud to partner with the
Dubai Future Foundation in supporting the One Million Prompters initiative.”

Khalfan Belhoul, CEO of Dubai Future Foundation, said, "Partnerships can empower
talent and drive the expansion of AI applications across key sectors that form the
foundation of Dubai's future. This readiness enhances Dubai's position as the world’s
most future-ready city and a global destination for AI talent, innovation, and investment.
The ‘One Million Prompters’ initiative supports this vision of our leadership to accelerate
the adoption of AI applications and upskill a generation equipped to utilise AI to
enhance the quality of life. We are pleased to collaborate with the DGHR to support this
strategic initiative."

The two parties are collaborating to build the skills needed to create algorithms and
guide AI in generating content and devising solutions through well-engineered prompts.
They will provide a supportive environment for trainees, offering access to experts in AI
and prompt engineering.
