Dr. Ruhollah Dehghani Firouzabadi, in the gathering of the elites and top talents of Isfahan province, while emphasizing the importance of artificial intelligence in the future of the country, said: In the last ten months, there is no issue like artificial intelligence and trying to inform the country’s officials about what artificial intelligence really is. I haven’t left time.
Dehghani Firouzabadi said: ‘Unfortunately, one of the problems with the waves of technology that enter the country is that it does not fully enter the country. The wave of digital economy and virtual space technology that entered the country caused events that we neglected in some aspects, such as the discussion of ‘data’ and Sum it up. When the digital economy was developed in developed countries, infrastructure and data architecture were planned at the same time, and artificial intelligence was developed based on it. At that time, we saw the appearance of the digital economy and ignored its hindrance.
Referring to his activities in this field, he said: In the field of artificial intelligence, I tried to inform the authorities that artificial intelligence is not only the appearances we see. The idea that people and some officials have of artificial intelligence is only tools for editing images, audio and text. If artificial intelligence is a thinking and decision-making technology that can replace the brain.
The head of the National Elite Foundation further added: ‘When defense technologies came, the number of soldiers was no longer a criterion, but advanced tools and equipment became important.’ In the field of artificial intelligence, in the future they will not ask how many scientists each country has, but they will ask about the amount of artificial intelligence equipment.
Dehghani said: I believe artificial intelligence will create the biggest economic and social gap among all past technology waves in combination with fields such as quantum and cognitive sciences. Artificial intelligence will divide the countries of the world into two blocks: the block of masters and the block of serfs. Artificial intelligence creates boundaries that are not so steep that we want to move slowly, but create deep gaps.
He clarified: When I raised these issues with President Shahid, they ordered that the National Artificial Intelligence Center be launched in the next two weeks, and they said this at the meeting of elites last year, and we started its implementation activities. Recently, the National Organization of Artificial Intelligence was launched at the level of the Vice President and it is not even a sub-category of the Vice President of Science.

In the future, artificial intelligence will take the place of organizations in the world.
He further explained: This national artificial intelligence document, which was approved, has about 8,000 pages of supporting documents and more than 3,000 hours of expert work has been done on it. When we say that we can be among the top 10 countries in the world in artificial intelligence, people may consider it impossible. How can we compete with countries that produce GPUs and spend hundreds of billions of dollars in this field? First we need to fix the definition. In this way, if 10% of the gross domestic product of the world’s top countries in this field is in the field of artificial intelligence, we should spend the same amount for artificial intelligence. This is doable.
Dehghani added: We never pursue imaginary goals. I believe that people who passionately pursue imaginary goals are delusional people. They should not be seen so small or so big that they cannot be achieved.
The National Artificial Intelligence Organization should be an agile and small organization
The Vice President of Science and Technology added: The National Organization of Artificial Intelligence should be a small and agile organization and prioritize things: first, start an operator that has at least 1,000 GPUs (GPU farm) such as Mobile phone operators can provide services to consumers. Secondly, collect and prepare appropriate data centers and be able to provide them with economic protocols to consumers, and thirdly, develop a series of large artificial intelligence tools and models according to the country’s needs. And let the people develop the economy under these operators. .
He added: ‘Now there are hundreds of GPUs scattered in the country, if all these are placed under one farm, it can serve all consumers.’ This is the view that the National Organization of Artificial Intelligence is following, and thanks to God, with the efforts of President Shahid, the necessary economic resources were allocated to it last year, the suppliers were identified, and we hope that within the next year, we will be able to build the necessary infrastructure in this field. to develop
Expressing his hope in the continuation of such elite gatherings, he added at the end: The presence of Mr. Dr. Rabbani as a realistic, productive and motivated person in the field of elites of Isfahan province is a treasure. I will provide them with what I can so that they can support good groups like you.
