EN Abstract

Türkiye Can Leverage the Power of Innovation, Artificial Intelligence, and Fintech to Enhance Productivity

The aim of this study is to reveal what Türkiye should do to increase its economic and social productivity according to the GII, fintech index, and AI index analyses. Based on the total scores of the GII, fintech, and AI indices were analyzed with K-Means clustering algorithm and linear projection methods. Türkiye needs to make a breakthrough in areas such as fintech and artificial intelligence, which are at the beginning of the digital age. In particular, it needs to focus on innovation and imitation, which can be combined into a new term, "imovation." Türkiye needs to increase its production of innovative products on a global scale. Focusing on and improving its competencies in this field is critical for economic and social productivity. Unlike previous studies, this study has been analyzed by selecting 51 countries that include all three of the Global Innovation, Fintech and AI indices. Based on these indices, Türkiye has been compared with other countries and what Türkiye needs to do for economic and social productivity has been revealed.

Türkiye Verimliliği Artırmak için İnovasyon, Yapay Zeka ve Fintech'in Gücünden Yararlanabilir

Bu çalışmanın amacı, GII, fintek endeksi ve yapay zekâ endeksi analizlerine göre Türkiye'nin ekonomik ve sosyal verimliliğini artırmak için neler yapması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktır. GII, fintek ve yapay zekâ endekslerinin toplam puanları baz alınarak K-Means kümeleme algoritması ve doğrusal projeksiyon yöntemleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Türkiye'nin dijital çağın başlangıcında olan fintek ve yapay zekâ gibi alanlarda atılım yapması gerekmektedir. Özellikle, yeni bir terim olan "imovasyon" ile birleştirilebilecek inovasyon ve taklit üzerine odaklanmalıdır. Türkiye'nin küresel ölçekte yenilikçi ürün üretimini artırması gerekmektedir. Bu alandaki yetkinliklerine odaklanması ve bunları geliştirmesi ekonomik ve sosyal üretkenlik açısından kritik önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma, önceki çalışmalardan farklı olarak Küresel İnovasyon, Fintech ve Yapay Zekâ endekslerinin üçünü de içeren 51 ülke seçilerek analiz edilmiştir. Bu endeksler baz alınarak Türkiye diğer ülkelerle karşılaştırılmış ve Türkiye'nin ekonomik ve sosyal üretkenlik için yapması gerekenler ortaya konulmuştur.
