Saudi Arabia is quickly transforming itself to become a global technology hub, and artificial intelligence and 5Gkey play a key role in this shift. Convergence between these cutting-edge technologies is revolutionizing industries from telecom to healthcare into smarter systems that help bring tremendous efficiencies and productivity in all places.
The digital transformation that the Saudi Vision 2030 initiative engineered, coupled with a boost from 5G deployments, enabled AI integration everywhere. With its predictiveness, artificial intelligence paired with 5G-based ultra-fast connectivity has allowed smartphones to be developed into future editions that look, think, act, and behave like smart devices themselves.
AI algorithms now can predict user requirements, automatically run tasks, and make seamless user experiences come about. According to a recent report by PwC, “The Smarter Phone,” AI-enabled smartphones are integrating predictive analytics to automate daily activities and offer real-time solutions. Facial recognition and other sensors, smart scheduling, image recognition, and more have joined the likes of mobile devices to enhance productivity at work and the quality of leisure time spent.
The telecommunications sector in Saudi Arabia, at the vanguard of this change, is integrating AI into 5G networks bringing communication technologies to much more flexible applications, and supporting future innovators like autonomous vehicles smart cities, and the Internet of Things. According to Raghav Sahgal, President of Nokia’s Cloud Network Services Group, “the commitment of the country to advanced technologies underlines the global and local importance of AI.”.
The most prominent contribution of 5G to Saudi Arabia is its ability to digitalize those industries through the petroleum sector, gas sector, and manufacturing sector. Using the high speed and reliability of 5G, they optimize processes with opportunities for increased operational efficiency and reduced time through AI-based predictive analytics.
Nokia has made immense contributions in enabling this AI-driven telecom revolution. The company’s AVA platform is short for Automation, Visualization, and Analytics-caters the forces of AI and automation to fine-tune secure and accelerate the performance of telecom networks. For example, STC, as well as other leading Saudi, Mobily, and Zain KSA companies have included AI-based solutions in their systems to monitor and optimize 5G network performances.
He has also been in the headlines of the world in developing AI research. The Kingdom ranked 14th on the Global AI Index for 2024. Jumping by a remarkable 17 ranks, the Kingdom takes pride in being the highest-ranked Arab country in the world. This marks a new milestone by showcasing the leadership of the Kingdom in AI adoption, particularly in the Government Strategy sub-pillar, ranking first in the world.. Chairperson of SDAIA, Dr. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has spearheaded Saudi Arabia’s AI agenda and transformed the country into a data-driven, AI-powered economy.
At the forefront of the global digital transformation curve, investment in AI and 5G presents exciting futures for its AI ecosystem and will revolutionize ground-breaking technologies changing its future.
