An important stage of this programme will be the establishment of an AI center for the certification of the authenticity of food products and food additives based on the international standards of the Codex Alimentarius. The center will operate as an international consortium of leading artificial intelligences from Europe, Asia and America, headquartered in Kazakhstan.
