The latest AI technologies in the Kazakh language have been unveiled in Astana. Developed by specialists at the Institute of Smart Systems and Artificial Intelligence (ISSAI) at Nazarbayev University, the solutions were created to meet the needs of local users. The new AI assistant can translate text and automatically transcribe speech in 11 languages. Another technology helps blind and visually impaired people navigate their surroundings, while a separate language model can run on local devices without an internet connection. Among the institute’s flagship innovations is ISSAI Voice Studio, a platform that can automatically dub videos into other languages while preserving the speaker's voice, emotions, and speaking style. The institute's portfolio includes seven AI solutions.
