Artificial Intelligence System Against Corruption in Public Service
The process of combating nepotism and conflicts of interest in public service in Uzbekistan is entering a new phase. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
From now on, this process will be carried out using artificial intelligence technologies. This system helps supervisory bodies detect hidden connections between officials and enables the process to be performed quickly and accurately.
This was reported by podrobno.uz. According to Akmal Burhonov, Director of the Anti-Corruption Agency, a Risk Analysis Center is being established under the agency.
Thirty databases from various ministries and agencies will be integrated into this center. This allows for the automation of inspections that were previously conducted manually and took a lot of time.
One of the main directions of the new system is the my.mehnat.uz portal, where artificial intelligence automatically identifies employees whose close relatives are in leadership positions. Additionally, the system analyzes data from soliq.uz to detect connections between officials and private companies.
This helps identify potential conflicts of interest in public procurement, particularly cases where persons related to organization leaders win tenders. The system analyzes not only personnel and financial indicators but also studies criminal and legal statistical data.
This creates the opportunity to detect systemic causes and risk factors of corruption at an early stage. According to the agency head, while such analysis previously took 5–6 days, now the process is completed within an hour with the help of artificial intelligence.
This approach serves to increase transparency in the public sector, prevent conflicts of interest, and ensure fair competition. At the same time, the system helps improve efficiency in public administration.
