The Future of Science: Artificial Intelligence

Today, young researchers from the Department of Turkic and Oriental Studies at the Faculty of Oriental Studies attended a seminar entitled ‘The Future of Science: Artificial Intelligence’, led by Senior Lecturer E.A. Kuanyshbaev. 

Young researchers from the Department of Turkic Studies and Oriental Studies, including Master’s and PhD students, took part in the seminar on artificial intelligence and showed an interest in the achievements of modern innovative technologies.

During the seminar, answers were provided to questions such as: ‘What is the difference between artificial intelligence and neural networks? What are the areas of application, aims and objectives of artificial intelligence? How are neural networks classified? And what are the competing trends in the development of artificial intelligence across four continents?’ Issues relating to the functional structure and algorithms of neural networks, as well as the role of artificial intelligence in science, were examined.

The speaker highlighted the scientific achievements made to date with the help of artificial intelligence, emphasising that the field of neural networks represents our future and that young scientists must master it thoroughly.

Young scientists from our faculty showed keen interest in the topic and bombarded the lecturer with questions. In particular, the contribution of artificial intelligence to the study of ancient manuscripts was specifically highlighted and widely discussed.

The Head of Department, A. Khalel, noted that numerous seminars and symposia on topical and pressing issues would be organised throughout the academic year.
