Your 10X Community is here

When you take the road less traveled by, that makes all the difference, as Robert Frost said. The same applies to smart nations who are on the path towards nurturing livable, smart communities. This why I am very proud of the many passionate people I met over the past few years who took the road less traveled by and working hard and smart to disrupt local industries before they we get disrupted. This includes entrepreneurs who started intelligent enterprises that care about sustainability before entrepreneurship, sustainability and 4th Industrial Revolution Technologies became popular, similar to what #EstnonianMafia achieves for their wider community. So that we make sure that we achieve up to 10 better results when it comes to sustainable and intelligent growth, we at Impact discussed 7 steps towards an Artificial Intelligence- AI Road-map for the Sultanate of Oman. Here are the 7 proposed milestones towards strengthening the 10X that make sure our sustainable, smart livable communities goal become a reality:

  1. Symphonic Leadership: Who likes to hear a music piece with no rhythm? The same goes for leadership, public, private and civil society leaders need to coordinate their tones in a way that synchronized so that people follow them on the road map towards our desired end result. AI complements our natural intelligence and presents us with data-driven options that can make our life simpler and better. For example, imagine if in the field of education there is lack for harmony between the soft and technology students are learning and where the world is heading, how will progress on the road map look like?
  2. Proactive data analytics: I love history, and what I love about it the most is that shares lessons on how we can proceed towards better decision making. Therefore, after a road map is synchronized it helps analyze what will accelerate our way towards better results that we have achieved in the past.
  3. Continuous AI capacity building: The CEO of Addo AI Ayesha Khanna, a well know Singapore tech entrepreneur noted at #4IR trends forum that AI is an irreversible trend that that is increasingly being incorporated into future strategies of nations around the world. This is why Singapore rolled out 2 initiatives: Building capacity of 10 thousand Singaporeans in AI basics, and an AI for Industry initiative. In a community like ours, the emerging enterprises using 4th industrial technologies in a sustainable manner and join hands to train educators and industry professional on the different use cases of AI.
  4. Implementing a national AI program: A competitive advantage guarantees a community leverages its uniqueness to ensure a decent life for its citizens and residents. Since individual efforts to deploy technologies will add little value to national economy diversification efforts, a national program is a more effective to enhance results until we reach up to 10 times better national economy diversification results.
  5. The moonshot: We can be the world's Center of Excellence in intelligent sustainability- #iSustainability or in fostering star enterprises that offer services such as renewable energy, AI, 3D printing, drones and others that are in line with Sustainable Development Goals- SDGs.
  6. Clear Objectives & Key Results- OKRs: When every player knows their role the game is easier to win. Once public institutions offer suitable 4IR innovation incentives, companies responsibly offer services and make products that are in line with markets needs and wants, and once civil society raises awareness about technology's ethical best practices, the AI road map is sure to be successful.
  7. AI leadership learning: We have the tendency to pass the buck to the information technology departments to deal with technology issues, from printer problems to data analytics, this will does not help in reaching our destination of more livable, smart communities. All of us have the responsibility to familiarize ourselves of how can we leverage artificial intelligence to save lives, time, efforts and cost, whether it is to help doctors understand bio-data better, or planners run a smoother traffic, or any other proven use cases.

As discussed with the first Intelligent Sustainability Conference speakers who represented national star enterprises such as Husam Technology and Continental Shelf in renewable energy, Mandoob in logistics, Thawani in FinTech, Oliban in natural medical products and cosmetics, Inspired Solutions in intelligent-eco tourism, in addition national leading companies such as Petroleum Development Oman- PDO, and global technology and economic opportunities majors such as Siemens and LinkedIn, and feedback from delegates, and organizers: functioning as an Artificial Intelligence support community will ensure that there is positive energy and vibe behind the 10X drive towards a competitive advantage that will bring us closer to be a mode livable, smart community, 1 step at a time, inshAllah.
