Unlocking AI Sovereignty: Building Foundations for Azerbaijani NLP
In a landscape buzzing with AI initiatives, a critical issue emerges: most projects are just wrappers around existing technologies. While many are excitedly building interfaces and demos, the essential groundwork for real AI solutions remains neglected.
Key Insights:
- Lack of Resources: There are few reliable, language-specific NLP tools for Azerbaijani.
- Data Sovereignty: Local infrastructures are essential for sensitive data, as banks can’t risk sending documents to foreign APIs.
- Gaps in Development: Current efforts often skip foundational components, focusing instead on flashy interfaces that don’t deliver.
Real AI progress starts with robust infrastructure. It’s about creating sustainable tools that work in the real world and support local languages.
