Generative AI: Pakistan's Path to Prosperity
Generative AI presents a transformative opportunity, with estimates suggesting a potential
annual value addition of $4.4 trillion to the global economy [McKinsey]. Pakistan is
uniquely positioned to capitalize on this. By equipping our workforce, we can train a very
large base of students and professionals in the country to become generative AI
experts. This skilled talent pool can unlock significant economic benefits locally and, by
offering valuable generative AI services globally, generate significant foreign
exchange. This dual approach will elevate Pakistan's standing in the global economic
landscape, fueling domestic growth and propelling the nation towards greater prosperity.
Project Overview:
This project aims to equip over 100,000 students, entrepreneurs, freelancers, and business
employees in Pakistan with the knowledge and skills to leverage Generative AI. Through a
train-the-trainer model, the program will empower participants to understand, utilize, and
develop impactful generative AI applications, enhancing their career prospects in the field.
Project Goals:
• Foster widespread understanding of Generative AI concepts and capabilities.
• Equip participants with the ability to identify and effectively employ existing generative
models.
• Develop skills for training and customizing generative AI models for specific needs.
• Empower participants to create and implement innovative generative AI applications.
• Increase employability in the generative AI sector through freelancing, contracting, or full-
time positions.
Target Audience:
• Engineers and Engineering Students (of all disciplines)
• Computer Science Students
• Entrepreneurs
• Freelancers
• Business Employees (across various industries)
