Location: Virtual

In collaboration with Al Multaqa Literary Salon, the Sheikh Zayed Book Award hosted a webinar titled “The Critical Narrative: Rationalism or Populism”, a literary discourse with the 2022 Cultural Personality of the Year winner Dr. Abdullah Al-Ghathami, and was moderated by Asma Siddiq Al Mutawaa, Founder and Chair of Al Multaqa Literary Salon.

The book seeks to examine the relationship between the mind and the machine, and presents the state of human culture in light of the expansion and spread of artificial intelligence capabilities, and delves into the identity of the modern city, and whether human culture has lost its major narratives and entered into a critical narrative.
