Over a Million Specialists
The article highlights the "One Million Lebanese Experts in Artificial Intelligence" initiative launched by the UAE in collaboration with the Lebanese government. Its goal is to enhance technical skills in generative AI and command engineering across various segments of Lebanese society. The piece raises the issue of bureaucracy and sectarian quotas in Lebanon, which hinder transforming knowledge into public benefits, as individual achievements do not translate into sustainable opportunities and services due to administrative complexities and lack of transparency. It also warns that the initiative could be exploited to increase the influence of political parties and sects by dividing quotas based on favoritism rather than competence. Moreover, it emphasizes that education and training alone are insufficient without effective institutions that ensure optimal use of talents and expertise. The article stresses the need for this initiative to be accompanied by measures to promote transparency, facilitate access to information, and encourage open participation within institutions to maximize benefits and minimize the impact of quotas and middlemen influences. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure that Lebanon truly benefits from technological advancements and modern knowledge.
