Pro-establishment narrative
Artificial intelligence has taken the entire world by storm over the past year, and it's starting to shake up Middle Eastern markets completely. AI brings multiple economic and technological opportunities that can spur serious growth and innovation. The technology can be harnessed in many ways to streamline production, bring skills to workers, and reduce costs for firms. The future is here, and the Middle East has many reasons to be excited about the emergence of AI.

Artificial intelligence may benefit large corporations looking to reduce labor costs; however, if policies surrounding AI aren't thought out, it risks displacing thousands of workers and causing massive societal disruption.
