The Presidency’s Head of Communications, Burhanettin Duran, detailed our Directorate's artificial intelligence initiatives, which focus on data security and technological independence, in a post on his NSosyal account and stated that numerous innovative projects for the public good have been implemented.
In his post, Head of Communications Duran said:
"At the Presidency's Directorate of Communications, we have created a secure, domestic, and publicly accessible artificial intelligence ecosystem. With this transition, which focuses on data security, technological independence, and institutional efficiency, we have created a groundbreaking and exceptional model for the use of artificial intelligence in the public sector.
In keeping with the technology, digital transformation, and Century of Türkiye vision of our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, we have undertaken significant projects to create a robust ecosystem that generates its own infrastructure, safeguards its data, and effectively employs artificial intelligence for the benefit of the public.
- We built an autonomous artificial intelligence architecture using our own GPU servers and infrastructure, and our data remained within the institution and was protected.
- We deployed air-gapped domestic LLM and VLM models with institution-specific fine-tuning, enabling the secure processing of sensitive data.
- We developed "CibGPT," a closed-loop artificial intelligence platform designed exclusively for our personnel.
- We launched "İlgen", an AI-powered coding agent that accelerates our software development processes.
- Through ULAK, we built modern databases that enable natural language interaction with legacy systems, allowing even non-technical users to communicate with them seamlessly.
- By adopting VLM-based video generation systems, we transitioned to scalable, multilingual content production.
- We strengthened our international media monitoring capabilities with artificial intelligence, enhancing both the speed and accuracy of risk, crisis, and agenda analysis.
- We integrated AI into CİMER processes to classify applications and transform data into meaningful insights.
- We contributed to the open-source ecosystem by establishing our institutional account on Hugging Face and sharing our datasets with the broader community.
- We secured all of our publications on the blockchain, creating a transparent and immutable archive.
- We extended this transformation across the public sector by providing integration guides to public institutions.
We are building the future through productive, transparent, secure, and human-centred artificial intelligence."
