DUBAI: A measure of national progress by looking at cognitive potential was proposed by CEO of Dubai Future Foundation Khalfan Belhoul at the Dubai Future Summit in Dubai on Tuesday.
“What if a nation’s most valuable asset is the focused and interconnected minds of people?” he said kicking off the two day summit.
“National cognitive potential is a measure of national progress by looking at cognitive potential. A new way to understand value in an AI age,” he said.
Belhoul predicted the shifts will be in regard to cognitive thinking skills, extracting information and human connection.
“Focus is not about productivity only but it's about thinking deeply. How do we protect deep focus and make it visible so that it's valuable?” said Belhoul.
