The term Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been used more and more by people and businesses around the world in recent times.

The AI revolution, which is expected to transform businesses, government and society, took a huge leap forward this year with the rise of ChatGPT.

With big tech companies racing to develop their own generative AI models, a very public debate has broken out about how best to manage the risks associated with this new technology.

The Global AI Index issued by Tortoise Media, which ranked 62 countries that have invested in AI, was calculated using three pillars of analysis — level of investment, innovation and implementation of AI.

Qatar received an overall score of 19.8 points, placing it globally in the 42nd spot. It helped them become the third-best Arab nation in the list, behind UAE (28th, 23.9pts) and Saudi Arabia (31st, 23.3).

Egypt (52nd, 16.9), Tunisia (56th, 13.7), Morocco (57th, 13.6) and Bahrain (58th, 13.5) were the other countries on the list.

Seven sub-pillars were also used, namely Talent, Infrastructure, Operating Environment, Research, Development, Government Strategy, and Commercial.
