It would be wonderful for this day to be remembered on the corporate social network through these lines.
🥇 Gold medals by country: 6 — Russia; 3 — Kazakhstan, Poland, India, Vietnam; 2 — Singapore; 1 — Romania, Japan, Sweden, Hong Kong, China.
In my view, this success shows that the national AI olympiad jointly organized by DSML KZ and CPFED, along with the training camps that followed, genuinely helped the team develop the right intuition to succeed at this level.
Special thanks:

The awards ceremony for IOAI 2025, the largest artificial intelligence olympiad, has just concluded.
Kazakhstan competed for the first time and immediately achieved an exceptional result: seven medals, including three golds.
On behalf of the DSML.KZ community, we sincerely congratulate our champions and wish them many more victories in artificial intelligence!
Gold medals: Zhanibek Kassymkan, Abu Kanabek, Sultanbi Issatay
Silver medal: Talim Aushakhman
Bronze medals: Timur Shakurov, Dauzhan Beketov, Sultanbek Sary
Honorable mention: Batyr Yerdenov
We would also like to give special thanks to everyone who helped prepare our national team for this success:
At this seminar, we will discuss “Diffusion Policy: Visuomotor Policy Learning via Action Diffusion” (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.04137v4).
The paper presents Diffusion Policy, a new approach to generating robot behavior in which a visuomotor policy is modeled as a conditional denoising diffusion process. It consistently outperforms existing methods by 46.9% on average. The model learns the gradient of the action density function and optimizes behavior during inference through stochastic Langevin dynamics. It handles multimodal distributions and high-dimensional actions well while maintaining stable training. Key technical choices include receding-horizon control, visual conditioning, and a time-series transformer. The work opens a path toward new diffusion-based policy-learning methods.
The Olympiad in Artificial Intelligence, a prestigious international AI competition for school students, is happening right now. Kazakhstan is represented by two teams this year!
The team contest begins in one hour. Students will develop logic for GalBot, an autonomous robot that they must program and test in a simulated environment.
The top 10 teams from the qualification round will advance and work with a real GalBot robot.

Let's cheer for our teams!
