Abstract

During the meeting dedicated to the development of infrastructure and human resources in the field of artificial intelligence, held on October 6, 2025, the President of Uzbekistan emphasized the need to cultivate a new key competency in AI among the youth. This article explores various methodological approaches for enhancing AI literacy among both schoolchildren and university students, as well as the influence of national digital platforms on improving young people’s digital skills.
Nowadays, more than one million young people have gained free access to programming and AI training through the platform uzbekcoders.uz. The continuation of this program is the “One Million AI Leaders” initiative and the launch of the aileaders.uz platform, which reflect the state's strategic commitment to cultivating AI-oriented specialists for the digital economy.
