Chapter 1 General Information
This strategy addresses the development of artificial intelligence technologies by 2030, establishing legal, technological, and economic foundations for AI adoption across social and economic sectors. It defines key AI concepts including artificial intelligence, neural networks, machine learning, deep learning platforms, AI technologies, and big data.
Chapter 2 The Current State of Artificial Intelligence Technologies Development in Uzbekistan
This section describes prior progress in developing AI capacity in Uzbekistan, including the introduction of AI courses in higher education institutions, enrollment of students in AI programs, sponsorship of overseas studies, establishment of a national research institute with specialized laboratories, and launch of a data platform for access to government datasets. Pilot projects applying AI were also implemented across priority sectors such as agriculture, banking, healthcare, and energy.
Chapter 3 Objectives and Tasks of the Strategy
The strategy pursues four primary objectives: developing legal frameworks aligned with international practices with security and ethical requirements; implementing AI across agriculture, banking, transport, logistics, industry, services, geology, energy, healthcare, education, culture, tourism and digital government; aligning national standards with international ones through inventory review, development of new standards, expert training and scientific partnerships; and building technical infrastructure including cloud services, data centers, open and big data collections with Uzbek language datasets. To support these objectives, the strategy will enhance public knowledge and develop qualified personnel through online courses, events, competitions and skills upgrading; strengthen legal frameworks by studying advanced countries' experience, establishing governance institutions and sector-specific standards; support research and innovation by simplifying research processes and enhancing commercialization frameworks; develop ethical guidelines and improve data protection frameworks; implement biometric identification for digital government services and student monitoring; advance speech recognition, natural language processing and chatbot development; and establish university laboratories, secondary school programming education and training programs with international companies to increase AI specialists and support personnel exchanges between scientific institutions and private sector.
