Poland develops native digital tools for efficiency and security
Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Radosław Nielek, director of NASK, announced Poland is implementing PLLuM, a free-to-use digital model, across sectors including banking, IT, and public administration.
A consortium led by NASK, with contributions from multiple Polish academic institutions like the Wrocław University of Technology and the Institute of Computer Science, Polish Academy of Sciences, developed PLLuM. The model is trained on Polish language data, allowing it to effectively answer simple questions and prepare draft responses for government communications, relieving pressure on public employees.
Nielek explained that development is now focused on optimizing PLLuM through continued learning and adapting it to specific tasks rather than pursuing the most complex solutions. Future plans include expanding the model to process images and scans, enabling it to analyze visual content and respond to related inquiries. Nielek emphasized the importance of technological sovereignty for Poland, arguing that developing its own digital tools fosters national competence and enhances security.
NASK also offers moje.cert.pl, a free platform that helps individuals, businesses, and public institutions strengthen their cybersecurity by identifying vulnerabilities and potential data breaches, particularly in light of increased hybrid warfare activity from Russia. He believes combining domestic scientific expertise, responsible business practices, and public education is essential for Poland to navigate the digital age securely and drive national development.
