Here’s the country that will be the first to use AI to write laws

The United Arab Emirates is planning to use AI to review and adjust existing legislation as well as write entirely new laws, reports the Financial Times. The Middle Eastern country is the first in the world to do so. Other countries are currently using AI to streamline various types of work, but not to create entirely new laws.

The UAE plans, for example, to use AI to see how laws affect the country’s population and economy by creating a database of laws with public sector data. The expectation is that AI will make local laws 70% faster and ensure they can be updated regularly. It is currently unknown what kind of AI system the country’s authorities will use.

“This new legislative system, powered by artificial intelligence, will change the way we create laws and make the process faster and more accurate,” said Sheikh Mohammad bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Emir of Dubai and Prime Minister and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates, according to the country’s state media.
