Malaysia aims to complete AI technology action plan within 12 months, says Anwar


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia aims to complete its Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology Action Plan within the next 12 months, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said on Tuesday (Oct 1).

He said this was one of several key technology-related goals targeted for completion within that timeframe, while expressing his hope that it could be achieved even sooner.

"When I said 12 months, it was the suggestion of the minister, for me there is no reason to wait for 12 months, you should be able to complete it in six months," he said in his speech at the Mantap Malaysia Bersama AI, a Google for Malaysia event here.

Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo and Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz were also present. – Bernama
