ASTANA, Kazakhstan, May 29. Advanced
technologies should become — and are already becoming — a powerful
catalyst for Eurasian integration, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart
Tokayev said during the meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic
Council in Astana, Trend reports.
Tokayev noted that one of the key areas of cooperation that
should be prioritized by Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) member
states is strengthening the digital foundation of Eurasian
integration.
“In the context of the formation of a new technological paradigm
based on digitalization and artificial intelligence, the key
success factors are data processing speed, the level of automation,
and the depth of innovation adoption. According to experts’
estimates, global investment in artificial intelligence
technologies has already exceeded the symbolic threshold of $1
trillion. In the coming decades, its cumulative contribution to the
global economy is expected to grow significantly and surpass $7
trillion,” he said.
Furthermore, Tokayev emphasized that advanced technologies must
become a powerful catalyst for Eurasian integration.
“We can confidently say that this work within the Union is
becoming systematic. Transformation is affecting all sectors, from
industry and logistics to agriculture and public administration,”
he said.
