$$Artificial Intelligence $($AI$)$ has become a transformative force in the corporate world,

impacting every industry from finance to healthcare, and retail to manufacturing. It

holds the potential to revolutionize how corporations operate, make decisions, and

interact with customers and suppliers. As AI technologies evolve, they present

opportunities for increased efficiency, new product offerings, and more personalized

service delivery. However, they also pose challenges related to ethics, privacy,

employment, and the necessity for new skills and organizational structures.

collaboration between public and private sectors$,$ investing in talent development and

prioritising AI implementation, Malaysia can unlock the true potential of this

transformative technology and become more competitive.

economy is on course to hit its goal of contributing more than $25\mathrm{.}5\%$ of the nation$$s

gross domestic product $($GDP$)$ by $2025.$ Unlike in the past, these initiatives will synch

with the implementation from its government$-$linked companies and timely actions from

the private sector.$$
