The government approved a national artificial intelligence plan that includes the establishment of advanced AI infrastructure, a national quantum computer, workforce training, and the integration of AI into the public sector. The plan aims to strengthen Israel's position as a global leader in the field, according to the official announcement.
The cabinet approved a national artificial intelligence plan on Tuesday afternoon, according to the government's announcement. The plan calls for developing advanced AI infrastructure, establishing a national quantum computer, training personnel, and embedding AI into the public sector. The stated goal is bolstering Israel's global standing in AI technology.
The decision follows a broader government push for advanced industries; earlier in June the cabinet approved a NIS 400 million strategic plan for advanced industry, chips, and robotics, as The Zioneer reported on June 11. The new AI plan represents a more focused effort on artificial intelligence as a distinct national priority. No budget figure or implementation timeline was provided in the brief official statement.
