Во исполнение Послания Главы государства от 8 сентября 2025 года «Казахстан в эпоху искусственного интеллекта» Министерство национальной экономики РК совместно с Министерством искусственного интеллекта и цифрового развития РК подписали совместный приказ о запуске пилотного проекта «Реестр обязательных требований в сфере предпринимательства».Новый цифровой сервис разработан для упрощения доступа предпринимателей к актуальным требованиям законодательства. В основе проекта алгоритмы искусственного интеллекта, которые автоматически анализируют действующие нормативные правовые акты, выявляют содержащиеся в них требования к бизнесу, систематизируют и актуализируют информацию.Основная задача проекта заключается в снижении административной нагрузки на предпринимателей, повышении прозрачности регулирования и формировании более предсказуемой бизнес среды.Автоматизированный анализ законодательства позволяет сократить время и ресурсы, необходимые предпринимателям для поиска и изучения требований, применимых к конкретному виду деятельности.Структурированная и доступная информация об обязательных требованиях помогает предпринимателям лучше ориентироваться в законодательстве и снижает риск непреднамеренного несоблюдения установленных норм.Система также позволяет оперативно отслеживать изменения в нормативных правовых актах и своевременно учитывать их в деятельности бизнеса.Пилотный проект является одним из инструментов цифровизации регулирования предпринимательской деятельности и повышения качества взаимодействия государства с бизнесом.Новый функционал доступен на цифровой AI-платформе для бизнеса. В ближайшее время сервис будет запущен также на портале eGov Business.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1279208?lang=ru
