UAE Company G42 Will Soon Launch Three ChatGPT Platforms
The artificial intelligence company is building an Arabic version of ChatGPT, a tool for government services, and another for climate action.
An artificial intelligence company from the UAE known as G42 is working on several ChatGPT-powered platforms. The organization’s CEO Peng Xiao announced during a recent press conference that they were “working on the largest Arabic-language model” and noted that although “Arabic is a major body of language in the world, it is not served at all by the big players in the industry”.
G42 has also begun work on GovGPT, a chat service that will help find answers to government-related search queries, and ClimateGPT, a tool to “help the population be more engaged and participate in the climate programs we’re championing”.
Although Xiao didn’t reveal an exact date for the release of the new ChatGPT platforms, he did address AI’s potential impact and future regulation.

“The way to better regulate it is not to say ‘stop, don’t do anything, let’s figure this out’. The way to do this is to do more sandboxes, more cutting-edge experiments, with transparency, like we’re about to do with Toto Wolff’s F1 team, and involve regulators and governments to see what we are doing”.
Founded in Abu Dhabi, G42 has a global footprint and a team of 2,700 AI experts who provide solutions for molecular medicine, space travel, and more. The company recently made headlines when it partnered with Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 to provide data and insights to improve the team’s performance.

1,000 Drones Light The Dubai Sky For AC Milan Celebration
Cyberdrone’s groundbreaking display marked 125 years of AC Milan football club and the 1st-year anniversary of Casa Milan Dubai.
Cyberdrone, a leading UAV display company based in Dubai, put on a breathtaking drone light show on Monday to honor two significant football milestones: AC Milan’s 125th anniversary and the one-year anniversary of Casa Milan Dubai.
The spectacle involved 1,000 drones working in perfect harmony to project AC Milan’s iconic imagery against the city’s night sky. Highlights included the UAVs synchronizing to form the club’s iconic crest, the signature red and black jersey, and a special emblem marking its 125th year. The intricate performance demanded meticulous planning, not just in terms of choreography, but also in dealing with the necessary permits and logistics.
“Our goal was to spotlight AC Milan’s legacy through a stunning visual narrative,” explained Mohamed Munjed Abdulla, Director of Sales at Cyberdrone. “We celebrated the club’s history, its Dubai milestone, and the universal love for football. The show also enhanced AC Milan’s regional presence, growing its fanbase through a cutting-edge, memorable experience. Drone shows are unparalleled in leaving lasting impressions, making them perfect for driving partnerships and growth”.

It gave us a unique opportunity to surprise and inspire audiences while elevating our Club’s visibility and that of our partners. Cyberdrone truly helped us take AC Milan to new heights”.
This groundbreaking drone display sets a new benchmark for the Middle East’s sports sector, which already contributes around $2.4 billion annually to Dubai’s GDP alone. Sporting events also generate $1.76 billion in revenues across the region, while the MENA’s entertainment sector, valued at $41.13 billion, is growing at 9.41% annually, driven by rapid technological advancements.
