Cezary Tomczyk said: “Artificial intelligence is the future, but the future begins now – it is happening here and now. We have to be in the vanguard, we have to be at the forefront when it comes to artificial intelligence and implementing the most important solutions.  

“When we talk about companies dealing with artificial intelligence in Poland and around the world, in almost every one of them, among the leading programmers you can find representatives of our country – Poles. We want them to be able to develop their skills here and contribute to building modern technologies in our country.” 

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has outlined a long-term strategy for AI development that extends to 2039, with emphasis on the next five years as pivotal for establishing Poland’s stance and utilisation of AI.  

The Artificial Intelligence Implementation Center is seen as an integral part of this strategy.
