The government aims to generate approximately 500,000 job opportunities through initiatives and plans involving artificial intelligence (AI) in Malaysia. This aligns with the government's goal of transforming Malaysia into an AI-ready nation by 2030.
These initiatives encompass various aspects, including alignment with the growth of the digital economy and economic restructuring. The government will also expand training and certification efforts to enhance workers' skills and knowledge, thereby mitigating the potential impact of AI adoption. Increased collaboration between the public and private sectors is expected to facilitate these measures.
Currently, the government offers various initiatives to enable the public to learn about and expand their knowledge of artificial intelligence, including the "Rakyat Digital" initiative, which provides free access to several AI models.
