Mehriban Aliyeva: Our goal is to transform Azerbaijan into one of the leading states in the region in the field of digital development

Artificial intelligence is no longer a question of the future, but a key factor in today's development.

This was stated by the First Vice-President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Mehriban Aliyeva during her speech at the first meeting of the Digital Development Council.

"It is no secret that the development of artificial intelligence in the world's leading countries is progressing faster than expected, which in turn creates both new opportunities and new threats. We must be prepared for new challenges, especially the risks arising in the field of cybersecurity and information security.

Our goal is to transform Azerbaijan into one of the leading countries in the region in the field of digital development and artificial intelligence. We must study foreign and international experience and utilize successful models. However, all decisions must be made taking into account factors that meet the national interests and needs of Azerbaijan," Mehriban Aliyeva emphasized.
