Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov announced the launch during his presentation at the Digital Bridge forum, emphasizing that Kazakhstan has become the first region where Telegram opens such a project.
The laboratory is located in the Alem.AI building and will serve as a platform for collaboration between Telegram and Kazakhstan’s supercomputer cluster. The first project will be implemented with the participation of the newly established Ministry of Artificial Intelligence.
According to Durov, Telegram is developing a technology at the intersection of blockchain and artificial intelligence that will allow more than one billion users to access AI functions through a decentralized system. The Kazakh supercomputer cluster will provide the necessary computational power.
He noted that the key principles of the project are transparency, efficiency, and privacy. These goals are achieved through the development of specialized chips that ensure stable system performance.
Durov also stated that Telegram has strengthened its integration with Kazakhstan’s data centers and telecommunications systems, which has improved connection speed and coverage for 12 million users in the country.
In his view, artificial intelligence is an “obstructive element” that fundamentally changes the structure of society. He stressed that the approach to AI can be based either on fear or on trust.
Recently, the Telegram team sent a letter of appreciation to the Eurasian Digital Foundation, recognizing the organization’s contribution to defending digital rights in Nepal. The letter highlights that EDF’s efforts to draw attention to the Telegram ban and advocate for its repeal became an important signal in support of open communication as a fundamental human right.
Telegram expressed hope for further cooperation with EDF in protecting digital freedoms worldwide.
