Almaty, December 24 (Xinhua) — Kazakhstan ranked 60th out of 195 countries in the Government AI Readiness Index 2025, published by the international think tank Oxford Insights, ahead of other Central Asian countries. This was reported by the Ministry of AI and Digital Development of Kazakhstan on Wednesday.

In the previous year's ranking, the country was ranked 76th.

The Government AI Readiness Index assesses the ability of governments to effectively use AI in public administration, the economy, and societal processes, as well as to create conditions for the safe, responsible, and sustainable development of AI.

"The Oxford Insights report specifically notes Kazakhstan's political potential and governance readiness. The existence of strategic documents, the development of a regulatory framework, and sustained institutional attention to AI enable the country to develop long-term and systemic public policy in this area," the agency reported.
