Hossein Afshin, Vice President for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, in a conversation with Mehr reporterRegarding the establishment of a specialized bank for the growth and strengthening of our country’s research and technology funds, he said: We must pay attention when it comes to the knowledge-based ecosystem, one of the important components of which is new financing methods. The point that Mr. Dr. Aref (first vice president for the establishment of the bank of research and technology funds) said a while ago and ordered us to prepare its introduction is that according to the law of the 7th plan, specialized banks can be formed; That is, the law itself has allowed the creation of specialized and development banks.
He added: The point is that the Vice-Chancellor of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy does not intend to do such a thing, but it is seeking to create a bank for research and technology funds and the knowledge-based ecosystem. At the same time, our big companies may also come and become partners there, so in general, we facilitate in the scientific department so that companies and funds can have a specialized knowledge-based bank. This is like when we say that the Scientific Vice-Chancellor has 10,000 knowledge-based companies, which should be said, in fact, we do not have 10,000 companies, but rather there are 10,000 knowledge-based companies that have come and obtained the necessary permits from the Scientific Vice-Chancellor, but the Vice-Chancellor himself is not a shareholder in any of them, but he has a sense of belonging to all of them.
The President’s Deputy for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy emphasized: We are currently looking to solve the issue Neobank And also follow up the bank so that we can provide appropriate financial resources for the knowledge-based ecosystem.
We are looking for the permission of the central bank to establish a bank
Afshin, in response to a question regarding the establishment of a bank or Neobank whether it reaches 1405 or not, he stated: We are interacting with the central bank about the necessary matters and it depends on whether we can get the necessary permission.
The science of artificial intelligence, unlike other sciences, is changing exponentially
In response to another question regarding the subject of artificial intelligence in the country, he noted: the private sector must be strengthened in artificial intelligence, because the science of artificial intelligence, unlike other sciences, changes exponentially; It means that what you have today and teach about it, may be removed in two years. For example, when we talk about programming languages; We say that it is possible that in three years they will leave altogether; So the government should act in artificial intelligence like the rest of the world in the governance part.
Afshin emphasized: artificial intelligence does not belong to this year or last year; This science has a history of 70 years in the world, but it has reached its growth since 2010, but the reason why we are behind in it is because it has not generally created attention and market for it. Am To involve the government itself and the ministries.
Regarding the artificial intelligence organization law, which was approved by the Islamic Council, he noted that the government will definitely adjust its mechanism in this regard based on the law, article by article.
