Role of youth in country’s future discussed in Astana

The role of young people in implementing the key priorities outlined in President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s state-of-the-nation address was discussed in Astana. At Qazaq AI Research University, experts and students exchanged views on the development of the education system, the introduction of new technologies, career prospects, and the competitiveness of young people in today’s world. In his state-of-the-nation address, the Head of State emphasized the special role of knowledge, science, and innovation. According to him, the future belongs to countries that successfully master artificial intelligence and advanced technologies. Therefore, it is important for Kazakhstan to establish specialized training programs in line with its commitment to comprehensive digitalization.

«The country needs skilled professionals. We are developing the AI+X model. This involves providing fundamental training in artificial intelligence, including logic, algorithms, mathematics, machine learning, and deep learning. The X component, meanwhile, focuses on industry-specific training. This is precisely what the President spoke about: the need to train specialists who will implement AI across various industries and understand how to optimize business processes and drive digitalization through AI,» noted Sapar Toxanov, Rector, Qazaq AI Research University.
