DEWA has announced the launch of the Rammas AI service on Amazon Alexa smart voice system. DEWA has become the first government entity to add its virtual employee to this innovative technology, in adherence with the directives of the wise leadership to reduce the number of visitors to government establishments by 80% and encourage the public to use smart services. This supports the Smart Dubai initiative, which aims to transform Dubai into the smartest and happiest city in the world.
Rammas acts as a virtual employee, making use of artificial intelligence technology to answer customer enquiries. Rammas is characterised by its ability to learn and understand the needs of customers, according to their enquiries. Rammas analyses these based on available data and information, and takes action to accurately answer all queries.
