TURKESTAN, Kazakhstan, May 15. Kazakhstan
proposes establishing a network of artificial intelligence centers
across Turkic-speaking countries, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart
Tokayev said at an informal OTS summit in Turkestan, Trend's special correspondent
reports.


"In particular, we need to implement joint projects in the
fields of satellite communications, navigation, and monitoring,
thereby ensuring our integration. This will strengthen our
technological independence and boost our innovative potential. The
mutual exchange of experience, joint training of personnel, and the
introduction of advanced technologies are of utmost importance.
Therefore, I propose creating a network of artificial intelligence
centers in Turkic countries," he said.


Tokayev stated that Kazakhstan plans to establish technology
universities in the country under the “Artificial Intelligence
University” format.







"An international conference titled ‘Artificial Intelligence and
Digital Development’ was held in Shymkent with the participation of
experts from the International Council. This event clearly
demonstrated the cooperation and shared interests of our countries
in this field. Last year, at a meeting in Gabala, I put forward a
number of important initiatives regarding digital development and
cybersecurity. In particular, I proposed establishing a center for
digital monitoring and digital innovation within the Organization
of Turkic States. These centers will open up new opportunities for
the digital growth and prosperity of the organization’s member
states. In addition, at that same representative assembly, I stated
the need to establish a cybersecurity council. Such a council will
help identify our countries’ vulnerabilities in the digital world
and prevent threats to infrastructure. Through this structure, the
relevant authorities of the Organization’s member states will be
able to work efficiently by exchanging information. Kazakhstan has
prepared a concept for this initiative and submitted it to the
organization’s member states for approval. I believe that all the
specific examples listed above serve the common interests of our
nations, so we will act effectively and proactively in this
direction,” Tokayev stated.
