ASTANA, Kazakhstan, May 4. President of
Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has proposed considering the
introduction of artificial intelligence in the industrial sector at
the next meeting of the Artificial Intelligence Development
Council, Trend
reports via the press service of the Kazakh President.


Tokayev made the statement during the second meeting of the
Council held in Almaty.


The President emphasized that at the current stage, the
strategic significance of artificial intelligence is determined not
by the scale of models, but by their capacity for effective
integration into the real sector of the economy.


“In essence, a fundamental paradigm shift is taking place, in
which the real-time application of artificial intelligence becomes
the primary source of productivity growth. This requires the
formation of a holistic system integrating data, processes, and
human resources,” Tokayev said.







He noted that the AI Council functions as an effective platform
for developing coordinated approaches and sharing best practices,
particularly in relation to the real economy and digital
platforms.


The President stressed that industry constitutes the foundation
of high-value-added production and serves as the principal testing
ground for new technologies.


“I propose focusing on the mining and metallurgy complex, the
energy sector, agriculture, and logistics, with an emphasis on
productivity enhancement, cost reduction, and improved management
efficiency. Through the development of industrial data, the
introduction of digital twins, and the expansion of process
automation, we will be able to transition from discussions to the
practical implementation of our strategic objectives,” Tokayev
said.
