Kazakhstan relies on AI: Prime Minister presents groundbreaking plans

Kasachstan - On July 18, 2025, Kazakhstan's Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov came together with the Commission for Digitization to discuss important progress in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). The focus of the meeting was on the developments of the national AI infrastructure and the integration of a new supercomputer. The Minister of Digital Development, Zhaslan Madiyev, emphasized the opportunities that this supercomputer offers to accelerate AI use in government agencies. The modernization of the government data centers was also emphasized as an important step in order to keep up with the latest technological developments, as astanatimes.com.

A central topic was the ongoing training programs known as AI Corporate, Tumo Center and Ai People. These initiatives aim to meet the need for qualified specialists in the AI area. In addition, innovative digital solutions were presented, including the applications E-AGENT, EGOV AI, AI therapist, Tax Helper, SDU and e-translator that are intended to increase the government's efficiency.

The role of Qaztech

The national Qaztech platform is particularly noteworthy, which is intended to significantly accelerate the development of IT products. During the discussion it was found that the realization time for new IT solutions from the platform can be shortened from years to just six months. From August, Qaztech will be ready for use and will already support several government services, such as [qazinform.com] (https://qazinform.com/news/kazakhstan-bets-bets-big-on-platform-Supercomputer-to-Boost-a- adoption-09a8f0). This platform is in direct connection to the harmonization of standards, integrated cyber security and cloud technologies.

Another crucial step in this digital transformation is the development of digital transformation cards. These cards are based on proven international models, especially that of Singapore, and are intended to support the integration of AI and the reorganization of outdated procedures. Bektenov was commissioned to complete these cards within one month in order not only to revolutionize public administration, but also to advance innovations in the private sector by using public data.

regulation and ethical considerations

In parallel to these technological advances, Kazakhstan has also presented an ambitious draft for a new law on artificial intelligence. This law, which was adopted in May 2023 in the first reading in Mazilis, the lower chamber of Parliament, is based on global trends and the EU's AI law. The government is aiming to regulate AI with a human -centered approach to take into account national values and needs. The discussion about compliance with fairness, legality and accountability plays an essential role in this legislation, such as [Euractiv.de] (https://www.euractiv.de/section/eu-aussenpolitik/news/kasachstens-neues-ki-geschlaegt-einen-ehrgeizen-s-ein-der-eu-inspiriert--ist/ emphasized.

The draft law also provides strict measures against unauthorized data collection and the abuse of AI systems. Experts also call for IT specialists in areas such as AI system design and digital ethics to ensure that the technology is used responsibly and in the interests of society.

In summary, it can be said that Kazakhstan, with its comprehensive strategy for the development of a AI infrastructure, not only increases the government's efficiency, but also wants to build up a responsible and citizen-friendly AI ecosystem. The initiative shows that Kazakhstan is willing to take advantage of the opportunities of the digital future and at the same time to maintain ethical standards.
