The poi that Mr. Dr. Aref (first vice preside for the establishme of the bank of research and technology funds) said a while ago and ordered us to prepare its iroduction 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 developme banks.

At the same time, our big companies may also come and become partners there, so in general, we facilitate in the scieific departme so that companies and funds can have a specialized knowledge-based bank. This is like when we say that the Scieific 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 Scieific 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.

In response to another question regarding the subject of artificial ielligence in the coury, he noted: the private sector must be strengthened in artificial ielligence, because the science of artificial ielligence, unlike other sciences, changes exponeially; 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 governme should act in artificial ielligence like the rest of the world in the governance part.
Afshin emphasized: artificial ielligence 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 atteion and market for it. Am To involve the governme itself and the ministries.
Regarding the artificial ielligence organization law, which was approved by the Islamic Council, he noted that the governme will definitely adjust its mechanism in this regard based on the law, article by article.
