Member of ANAS, and Babak Nabiyev, Head of the AzScienceNet Network Operation Center at the Institute and PhD in Technical Sciences, appeared as guests on TV1’s “Baku Time” programme.
The programme focused on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on society, examining its potential applications, key advantages, and associated risks. As one of the most significant technological advancements of the 21st century, AI offers extensive opportunities across various fields. However, making effective and responsible use of these technologies requires several important measures. The participants emphasised the need to enhance digital literacy, foster a responsible culture of technology use, and strengthen public awareness. Particular importance was attached to introducing AI-related knowledge and developing the skills necessary for its responsible and purposeful use from the secondary school level.
The discussion also addressed the national security challenges associated with deepfake technologies, disinformation, and cyber threats. The participants stressed that while society should actively embrace the opportunities offered by artificial intelligence, it is equally important to recognise and assess its potential risks, strengthen cybersecurity awareness, and promote a robust culture of cyber security.
