Astana Hub launches the AI Movement initiative to develop AI in Kazakhstan

The International Technopark Astana Hub announces the launch of a large-scale initiative, AI Movement, aimed at developing artificial intelligence in Kazakhstan.

AI Movement includes three directions: attracting talent, training, and resources. Under the first direction, projects such as AI Quest—a game in the Astana Hub mobile app that allows users to test their AI knowledge and win valuable prizes—are being implemented.

The second direction focuses on enhancing AI knowledge and includes educational programs such as the AI People Bootcamp, a four-week online intensive, and the online course "Fundamentals of AI: ChatGPT" in Kazakh and Russian.

The project pays special attention to gamification—the application of game mechanics to engage participants and improve learning efficiency. This makes the process of mastering AI not only beneficial but also engaging, contributing to the creation of a new level of specialist community.

AI Movement opens up broad opportunities for the development of artificial intelligence in the country, laying the foundation for the creation of the National Artificial Intelligence Center, which will open in 2025.
