Are you keeping up with the Middle East's #AI revolution?

55 years later, #OffWorld was formed to develop autonomous industrial mining robots that could be used on other planets. The company recently began signing deals with mining companies around the world to deploy the machines at terrestrial mines.

#Qatar joins the #smartstore club this month, after we've seen cashierless stores open in Oman and the UAE over the past 18 months.

However, none of the Gulf's retail brands involved have announced any plans to add further smart stores. Is that lack of success or simply not a priority?
