Kazakhstan implements 100 key AI initiatives

Kazakhstan has begun implementing measures as part of the Year of Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence. According to the relevant ministry, this initiative is a part of the instructions of President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. The comprehensive plan approved by the Prime Minister includes 100 key measures across eight priority areas – from human capital development to building a new digital economy. A central strategic document is the development of the Digital Qazaqstan Strategy, along with a package of legislative and tax initiatives to support domestic IT companies. Particular focus is on scaling up the AI-SANA initiative, under which at least 450,000 schoolchildren, students, and teachers will acquire AI skills. It is expected that the quality of digital services, including those provided through the e-government portal, will improve by at least 75%.

«The introduction of artificial intelligence technologies into the e-government system will enhance the quality of public service delivery to citizens. It will also streamline the work of civil servants by reducing bureaucracy. AI technologies have already been integrated into the eGov.kz portal and the eGov Mobile application. Soon, powered by the resources of the Alem.Cloud supercomputer, the Alem GPT platform will be launched to simplify and accelerate interaction between citizens and the government,» said Assem Issabekova, the Head of External Communications at NITEC.
