What will Kazakhstan's current policy towards Russia lead to?

2023-07-13 15:46:58

Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan have agreed to launch a new multimodal Southern Transport Corridor, which will bypass the territory of Kazakhstan. The new route solves two tasks: to avoid obstacles arising on the Kazakh border for goods going to the markets of the Russian Federation, and to transfer part of the cargo flow to the port of Astrakhan. This will deal a blow to Astana's plans to make Kazakhstan a full-fledged transport hub in Central Asia and the Caspian region. The route from China through Kyrgyzstan will become a very serious competitor to the route on Kazakhstan railways.

Moreover, this blow to the plans of the President of Kazakhstan is inflicted from the Kazakh side, and not from Russia or Kyrgyzstan. If the transit of goods went without delays, then no one would be against using the territory of Kazakhstan as a hub. Astana's decision not to violate Western sanctions imposed against Russia was only a catalyst for the initiative to create an alternative transport corridor bypassing Kazakhstan

How to reduce the crime rate?

2024-05-13 13:56:26

It is necessary to focus all forces on the hotbeds of crime

The problem simply needs to be solved, and a lot more money and effort should be spent. In problem areas, the police should step up their efforts to detain violators, and city services should simultaneously engage in landscaping: clean streets, install lighting and bring them in line with current building regulations.

In addition, crime is primarily a social phenomenon. The more prosperous the country, the lower the crime rate. The severity of punishment also plays a role, up to a certain limit. The inevitability of punishment is also an important factor influencing the crime rate.

What happens if we start regulating AI?

2026-01-02 14:45:25

The Americans are the leaders in AI, and regulation will only increase the technological gap of other countries.

Inequality between countries will lead to the fact that regions with strict regulation may lag behind less regulated ones. This could lead to a war of humans against robots, like in science fiction movies. Governments are trying to regulate AI, relying on experts, business and academia, but the balance of power is unequal: corporations have more resources and influence, independent specialists have less voice. As a result, the rules often reflect not the public interest, but the interests of the strongest players.

The spread of AI is already regulated by American companies that control all key aspects of AI. Video cards, processors, major data centers, scientific developments, etc. are controlled by the Americans.
