Armenia: national artificial intelligence strategy announced to assert itself in the sector - Actu IA

At the beginning of June, the Armenian Prime Minister, Tigran Avinyan, spoke about the artificial intelligence strategy that Armenia wishes to put in place. Several topics were discussed: fundamental research, applied research, infrastructure, public sector, private sector, training and financing. On the Yerevan side, we now wish to give priority to AI in order to join, in the long term, the countries already well advanced in the sector. In the state of play mentioned by the Prime Minister of Armenia, he wants to focus his strategy on basic research, which he believes would be the point requiring the least investment: a stable internet connection and supercomputers may be enough to conduct research or training on artificial neural networks. The government also wants to build on its strengths in mathematics and experimental and natural sciences.
