Bulgarian scientists are set to undertake a significant project related to hydrogen and hydrogen technologies starting in 2025. Petar Teodosiev, a science communicator, revealed in an interview for BNR that this project aims to contribute to the advancement of cleaner transport and energy solutions. Teodosiev envisions that the achievements in this field over the next seven years will position Bulgaria as a leader in hydrogen technologies within the Balkans region. An exciting development in Bulgarian science is the creation of the Bulgarian-language AI model BgGPT by the Institute for Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, and Technology (INSAIT) at Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski". Despite operating with limited financial resources, Bulgaria is making notable progress in scientific endeavors. Teodosiev attributes this success to the presence of a considerable number of higher education institutions and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, which boasts around 50 research institutes. Additionally, the Bulgarian AI chat tool BgGPT, is available for free use by the public, showcasing Bulgaria's commitment to accessible technological advancements. The country's dedication to innovation and education in diverse scientific fields positions it as a promising hub for research and development.
